Support the Postal Workers!
The Belfast Trades Council is working to support CWU members currently engaged in industrial action against Royal Mail. The Trades Council believes that these workers have been forced into this dispute by management and government who are determined to destroy both the CWU and the postal service in order to hand Royal Mail over to private companies. This is yet another attack on our public services which has serious implications for the whole community and the Trade Union movement.
The Trades Council are asking for your support in defending the postal service and the livelihoods of postal workers.
Join the picket lines and show your support!
