EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from 1971 captures the spirit of a small newsagent in Redcar, North Yorkshire during a time of intense political debate. The shop window is adorned with bold signs that read "Anti Common Market" reflecting the sentiments of many locals who were opposed to Britain's entry into the European Economic Community (EEC), which would later become the European Union (EU). The image serves as a powerful reminder of an era when politics permeated everyday life, even in seemingly ordinary places like this newsagent. It showcases how individuals and communities actively engaged in campaigns and petitions to voice their opinions on important matters such as EU membership. Located in the heart of Teesside, this photo encapsulates both the regional significance and national implications surrounding Britain's decision on whether to join or remain outside the EEC. The referendum held just two years after this picture was taken ultimately resulted in British citizens voting for continued membership. Teesside Archive's print allows us to step back in time and witness firsthand how local businesses became platforms for political expression. This snapshot not only documents history but also invites viewers to reflect on how public opinion can shape significant events that impact our lives.
