Report: Ceasefire Now Workplace Day of Action

Yesterday’s Ceasefire Now – Stop Arming Israel Day of Action saw a widespread return to workplace activity in solidarity with the Palestinian and Lebanese people. Thousands of workers in hospitals, schools, universities, libraries, town halls and elsewhere came together to demand an end to Israel’s genocide.

The backing of Unison and UCU has meant more workers involved than ever before. But the fact is we need more activity. The horrific daily massacres currently occurring in Gaza and Lebanon necessitate that the trade union movement do all it can to call on the Labour government to stop arming Israel. We call on all the unions to back our Days of Action for Palestine and encourage their members to get active on this issue.
