blog:Blears Speaks Out about Sweatshop Controversy
Hazel Blears, who is running for a Labour Party deputy leadership role, had decided to sell T-Shirts and other items on her web site as a way to help others show support and spread the word. Now there is speculation about whether the shirts were manufactured in sweatshops in Bangladesh. The factory where some of the merchandise may have come from burned down in 2005. Many of the employees suffered injuries or died as a result.
“It has been brought to my attention that one of the T-Shirts available on my deputy leadership campaign website can be sourced up the supply chain to a company linked to a tragic disaster two years ago at the Spectrum Factory in Bangladesh. I am investigating this claim with some urgency. I am angry and upset at any suggestion that a company my campaign is using might be unethical in any way,” Blears said recently.
