Fears For Labour Conference As Security Firm G4S Rejects Approach

Security firm G4S says it has rejected an approach by Labour to cover its conference, sparking fears it could be cancelled. G4S said it was contacted by Labour this week, despite being boycotted previously over links to Israel and detention centres. The rejection comes after a standoff between the GMB union and another security firm, Showsec, who it was hoped could run security.
