is a political organisation aiming to build workplace and community democracy through direct action and struggling with all those fighting for change.
We stand for the power of workers and local people against the bosses and politicians in order to bring about radical social change, to build a society based on freedom, democracy and cooperation.
15 IWW members and supporters in Edinburgh turned out today to support victimised cleaner Alberto Durango and his fellow workers who have faced cuts in their pay by their employer, Lancaster. Alberto was fired by Lancaster for daring to organise cleaners and fight for better treatment for them. Lancaster are contracted by Swiss bank UBS for cleaning in London where these workers are facing attacks and intimidation from management.
The Edinburgh picket was part of a global day of action, with pickets in other major cities around the globe to show solidarity and to pressurise and embarrass UBS into ensuring the Lancaster workers are treated fairly.
