PROTESTERS are planning two days of action in Blackpool, targeting the Conservative Party’s spring conference on Friday and Saturday.

Northern trade union councils, union branches and campaign groups are uniting for the protests after the cancellation of a national demonstration in the Lancashire resort by the TUC because of the Ukraine crisis.
