Strikes, nukes & overdue subscription fees: talk and exhibition will take place on Saturday July 28th, 2012 starting at 2pm at the Nottingham Mechanics, 3 North Sherwood Street, Nottingham NG1 4EZ, UK.
The event will showcase unique material from the Solidarity Federation archive and related anarcho-syndicalist material held at The Sparrows' Nest, concentrating on earlier artifacts mainly from the late 1930s up to the 1960s. All welcome.
Whether it's at work, at home, or at the job centre, bosses, landlords and the state are always trying to get more from us for less, or give us less for more. It might be work not giving you your breaks, or a landlord not making repairs, or the job centre forcing you onto a 'voluntary' scheme for your dole money. Forcing them to play by their own rules can be an important first step in turning the tables, and shifting the balance of power in our favour. To do that, you've got to know your rights!
The Ryanair Don’t Care Campaign, supported by the Solidarity Federation in the UK and the IWA internationally, is calling for a Week of International Action against exploitation and recruitment scamming by Ryanair, starting on March 12.
Ryanair Don’t Care was started by John Foley after his daughter was sacked as a flight attendant mid-flight and abandoned abroad without any money. This led to the exposure of a cynical and highly exploitative recruitment scam by Ryanair.
