Edinburgh Branch helped out with this Saturday's @IWW_PAWA meeting in Inverness! We had a lovely conversation about everyone's workplace and lives, learned a bit about employment law in Scotland, and had some delicious Jamaican food!

At the meeting we discussed the equality act and how it can be used to protect you against racist policies from the boss, the working time directive's maximum hours, and how the law can only do so much-- real power comes from solidarity!!

Palestinian trade unions issue a global call to action!  Stop the complicity with Israel's crimes! The time is NOW to halt the arms trade, funding, and military research. Palestinian lives depend on it. Share this message far and wide! #PalestineSolidarity #StoArmingIsrael

For easy copy & paste: @BHIndies claims to care about local people. Yet it’s alleged that their councillor candidate Gary Farmer, manager of Brighton Language College, mistreated one of his staff. Join us in demanding Gary & @brightonlc make this right! @englishuk @TeflUnion

If your workplace stocks goods on the BDS list, or otherwise contributes to apartheid, please contact your local branch to organise. Only through coordinated industrial action can we seize our workplaces and ensure they will NEVER contribute to genocide in our names.
