Activists from Bath Anti-Cuts Alliance, BARF and others will be outside Holland & Barrett health foods on Saturday the 7th July, due to their practice of employing unpaid,
coerced slave labour, as part of the Con-Dem’s controversial ‘Workfare’
scheme. Despite slavery’s apparent abolition in the British Isles back
in 1833, the unelected Con-Dems and their buddies in the business world
have concocted this new plot to squeeze out more profit from the people
they’re meant to serve and undermine the jobs of other workers lucky
enough to still have jobs. Wilburforce will be turning in his grave.
The protest will mark the first day of the national Stop Workfare week
of action – running until the 14th July – and will coincide with other
actions in the westcountry, and up and down the country. Meet at 11am at
the pillars near the Abbey Churchyard and Stall Street in Bath.
See Boycott Workfare for more information.
