UNISON and UNITE members in Southampton City Council strike today

As I blogged last week
http://unionfutures.blogspot.com/2011/05/unison-and-unite-members-in-southampton_18.html today UNISON and UNITE members are taking co-ordinated strike action against pay cuts, in April, the City Council issued dismissal notices to all City Council workers in order to enforce pay cuts of up 15%!


Solidarity to those striking today my branch have sent a message of solidarity and a cheque for the strike fund and I encourage others to ask branches to do the same.

Let's hope to see some coverage of this on UNISON's national website as a positive example of unity in taking action to fight off attacks.
