Pay Meetings

Please look out for your pay meeting. All members get an hour of paid time to attend. Here's Bash in full flow. 

 

May Day 2

The march has arrived for speeches & a rally.  

May Day

The Red Leicester Choir are warming people up prior to the May Day March.  

International Workers Memorial Day

Leicester's event is organised by Leicester & District Trades Union Council. The event was chaired by me and Martin Foreman spoke. The event closed with a song and 9 balloons being released to commemorate the 9 people who have died in work related accidents in the East Midlands in the last year. 

Remember the dead - fight for the living. 

 

Support The Junior Doctors

A meeting to support junior doctors fighting the imposition of contracts took place at the clock tower today.

The meeting was organised by Leicestershire Against Cuts (LAC) who are supported by the branch and Leicester & District Trades Union Council (L&DTUC).

There were a number of branch activists there including Noel and me.

NUT Dispute

Not content with introducing a Trade Union Bill to a country that already has one of the most restrictive TU laws in Western Europe, the government tried to seek an injunction against the NUT taking strike action. The government lost.

They don't seem to understand anyone wanting to take action for something other than money.

Our members understand that providing a good service is beneficial to both staff & the people who use our service alike.

DEFEND OUR SIXTH FORM COLLEGES & SUPPORT THE NUT.

In spite of the cold weather & most members going to a strike rally in London there were still pickets at my old sixth form when I went past this morning. It's Wyggy Boys' (now colloquially known as QE) for those of you who are interested.
