Strike day

Post by taptap »

Hi all,
Just a small question about the strike I have said Yes and so has my office.
But on talking to some of the older posties there not going out even though they voted yes
Any ideas?
Not sure if I can make a 1 person picket line?.

There is no reason why you can't be a one-person picket line.
However if that doesn't appeal to you, just don't go to work. Picket line duty is entirely voluntary.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

You will not be standing alone - you will have the support of many CWU colleagues nationwide behind you. Even if you stay only a short while on your one-man picket line you can note which members cross the line. The Branch can be made aware for future strike action.
