A well attended rally at the Notts Oddfellows Club.
We have been interviewed by Radio Leicester & various other radio stations throughout the county, Leicester Mercury, and TV (both BBC & Channel 4)
The strike has been well supported throughout the civil service with 75-80% of people out in DWP, HMRC, MOJ & Land Registry.
Speeches were given by a National Vice President, DWP GEC member and reports from all the picket lines.
A message of support was also given by the local TUC from the other unions in the Leicester area.
The feeling of solidarity and support are a real encouragement to carry on the struggle to maintain and improve conditions for all members.
Together we can win.
I'm off, now, to celebrate the success of the day.
