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!

[Edinburgh IWW @EdinburghIww]

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!!

[Edinburgh IWW @EdinburghIww]

Hello folks!

@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.

[Edinburgh IWW @EdinburghIww]

An injury to one is an injury to all.
The IWW stands in solidarity with all workers in Palestine suffering from Israeli occupation & genocide. We ask that other branches proudly show support for our international brothers and sisters.
