Barnet Press, Enfield Advertiser & Gazette, and Haringey Advertiser on strike


Enfield Nine launch a campaign with NUJ to save quality local newspapers

"A ONE-hundred-per-cent ‘Yes’ vote in favour of strike action was the result of the second ballot at North London & Herts Newspapers, owned by Sir Ray Tindle.

"The rock-solid declaration – which included the editor joining the ballot for the first time – was the result of management’s refusal to meet or even discuss the desperate situation at the Enfield-based papers, where two thirds of the newsdesk have left without being replaced."


'North London & Herts Newspapers' comprises: 
  • The Enfield Advertiser, 
  • The Edmonton Advertiser & Herald, 
  • The Winchmore Hill Advertiser & Herald, 
  • The Haringey Advertiser, 
  • The Enfield Gazette, 
  • The Barnet & Potters Bar Press, 
  • The East Barnet Press & Advertiser, 
  • The Edgware & Mill Hill Press, 
  • The Hendon & Finchley Press.
