The National Union of Journalists is the trade union of British and Irish journalists. As well as journalists in the narrowest sense of the word it is open to all persons who are primarily active in journalism. The NUJ issues the National Press Card for the United Kingdom and an Irish Press Card for Ireland. In Ireland the Irish Press Card is the only recognised press pass. In the United Kingdom, on the other hand, the Irish Press Card is not officially recognised by the British police or by public-sector bodies. |
