WHAT THEY
SAY.

“Gary, you have always been brave, things that would have held other people back, you have pushed aside and kept going, keep going brother”

Terry Pullinger, former Deputy General Secretary (Postal), CWU

“For much of the time since 1986, he and I have fought alongside each other - a common bond forged through a common struggle.

I would encourage every active trade unionist and socialist, and indeed anyone concerned with injustice and discrimination, to read You Will Hear Me Speak. The title of the book is itself a declaration of intent.

This is a story that will have a profound impact on all who read it. Hopefully, it will also inspire readers to dedicate themselves to the most important struggle of all: the fight to end the exploitation, brutality and degradation of capitalism.”

From the foreword by Philip Stott, National Secretary, Socialist Party Scotland
