SOAS J4W & IWGB Security Workers Rally

SOAS, Univ of London. Thu 22 Jul 2017

 

 Members of the SOAS Justice for Workers (SOASJ4W) had been occuping the SOAS management suite for several days 

 calling for job security for all who work at SOAS

 Supplies are loaded up by a bag on the end of a rope

 A speaker from the windows

 with a poster condeming the management action on 12th June 2009 when SOAS colluded with the Borders Agency

 calling in cleaners to a 6.30am meeting which was actually an immigration raid. Nine were seized and deported

 On the window it states 'Deportation is a Crime'. One of the occupiers gets ready to play a drum

 and other drummers look up at him

 

 

 

 

 

 Striking IWGB Security workers and supporters march from their picket to join the SOASJ4W rally

 

 

 'No More Broken Promises'. They were promised in 2011 that pay differentials would be maintained, but since then they have been reduced by 25%.

 

 Some of the protesters decide to go into SOAS and look for their ID cards

 but are refused entry

 and others decide to try and push their way in
