King's College employ your cleaners
King's College, London. Fri 1 Dec 2017
A woman holds up a leaflet that shows cleaners being given cleaning
liquids in milk bottles. They complain about
poor safety equipment too
A samba band supports the protest
and people blow whistles and vuvuzelas
Another cleaner speaks
And a speaker from the LSE's Justice for Cleaners campaign comes to
support, telling how they have had
a successful campaign there by uniting cleaners, students and staff
against the management to bring
cleaners in house.
The cleaners at King's are in Unison, and there was also support at
the protest from SOAS Unision who have
been campaigning there for more than ten years, getting better pay
and conditions
There are only 130 students cleaning up after 30,000 students - and
of course staff as well
The campaign will win because universities must stand up for justice - and
it makes sense.
