Reason for NPOV tag: it would apepar clear, from the phraseology in this article, that it has been written from the viewpoint of one (or more) of the "certain left-wing groups" mentioned in it; something reinforced by the fact that all of the refernces cited are from sources critical (in some instances, hyper-critical) of the League, not one from a "sympathetic" viewpoint.
I have just written the Consulting Association article and linked it from Blacklist, which incurred a citation request for whether the EL maintained a blacklist. As a TU member I have no doubt it did, but this is my POV. The only solid reference I can find is a written question in the House of Commons [1], where David Alton MP alleged that the blacklisting was going on. Also as an MP he would have had Parliamentary privilege. Rugxulo ( talk) 23:00, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
Do the criminal records check constitute a blacklist? There is the occasional article in left of centre newspapers saying such and such organization kept a blacklist of leftwing activist but judging by the economy at the moment maybe they shouldn't have bothered and instead have blacklisted anyone studying economics 81.109.247.189 ( talk) 09:20, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
I remember hearing about the activities of the Economic League back in the 1980s. I think it was a lot more than just a criminal records check. Don't get me wrong, considering where the left has brought us today by their long, slow march through the institutions, I've now come to the conclusion that they might have been on to something with the blacklisting. However, there WAS blacklisting and there's no point in denying it. — Preceding
