#RightToStrike

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

🪧Solidarity to all marching today🪧

The #RightToStrike is a *fundamental human right*

It is essential to preserve the right to withdraw our labour.

The proposed "minimum service levels" are an attack on workers, and upon democracy.

(MSLs are also unworkable!)

We cannot allow this corrupt, authoritarian government to win.

www.tuc.org.ukProtect the right to strike march and rallyJoin us at Montpellier Gardens, Cheltenham at 12pm on Saturday 27 January. Celebrate our history. Protest against the government. Stand up for your rights. 

"The UN’s labour standards body has told the UK government it must make changes to highly controversial new strikes laws, which critics say threaten the fundamental rights of British workers."

UN says unions can use electronic ballots & govt should "improve consultation with unions and limit government powers to ensure they “do not interfere with the autonomy and functioning of workers’ and employers’ organisations”.

The GuardianUK strikes laws must conform with international rules, says UN agencyBy Jasper Jolly

I'm headed downtown to protest the lawsuit against the Teamsters.

"The Supreme Court, which just stripped away abortion rights, is gearing up for the biggest attack on workers in a generation: forcing workers to pay the bosses for losses from strike action! Strikes are the most important tool workers have to fight for better wages and conditions–we can’t let the bosses and their courts take this away from us!"

Talking about @workersrights … Apple sued for allegedly firing, threatening union organizers - #Apple is following in the footsteps of #Starbucks it appears. #Unions have never been more critically important than in this age of powerful corporations & conservatives bent on bringing back child labor. Soon, #automation and #robotics will replace millions of jobs. We need unions to protect worker rights. #labor #humanresources #RightToStrike theregister.com/2023/03/29/app
