Reel News video about the coordinated strike action taken last week by members of NUT and Unison against cuts in the deprived London borough of Tower Hamlets.
Upholding the proud traditions of the East End of London, council workers and teachers in Tower Hamlets become the first unions to take coordinated strike action against the government’s public sector cuts.
The call is going out for national coordinated strike action by all public sector unions on June 30th – let’s hope everyone follows the brilliant lead shown here.
