Burberry Cleaners Strike

Regent St, London. Fri 6 Feb 2015

  
 
 IWGB members arrive to form an official picket outside Burberyy on Regent St

 They get out IWGB flags

 and banners

 And Alberto speaks to passers by on the megaphone

 

 

 

 Between speeches, union members make a lot of noise with plastic horns

and drums
 
 

The main banner turned around to face the traffic - many buses taking shoppers and workers home 

'ISS - Burberry - Stop - We Are Not Slaves - Pay the Living Wage - Sack Abusive Managers' 

The cleaners demand to be treated with dignity and respect and to be paid a living wage 

The cleaners who work at Burberry are employed by the contractor ISS 

A man from Burberry asks the protesters not to block the doorway - and they moved forward to leave it clear
