The Burston Strike School Rally in Norfolk has been cancelled due to coronavirus.

The event was due to be held on 6 September and marks the longest industrial strike in British history.

It is the first time since the rally started in 1984 at the village near Diss that the event has not been held.

Miles Hubbard, one of the organisers from the union Unite, said: "It would be unwise to go ahead."

He said the event, external would return "just as vibrant" next year.

The Burston Strike School was established as a result of the sacking of two teachers, Tom and Kitty Higdon, in 1914.

Children and parents then refused to attend the local Church of England school and instead an alternative school was set up on the village green, which remained open until 1939.

Past speakers at the rally have included Jeremy Corbyn, Tony Benn and Diane Abbott.
