Kings College workers await council decision

Kings College, London. Wed 26 Sep 2018



 

People carriy in the SOAS Unison banner to join the cleaners inside King's. The council meeting was being held

in the building to the right.

 

The Unison cleaners were already inside, waiting for the decision

 

 

 

 

 

There was a lot of spirited chanting and expressions of support

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Several of the cleaners spoke

 

 

 

 

and one of the visitors

 

 

 

The security staff also want to be brought in-house, and one of them spoke. I had to leave several hours before
the council meeting finished, and although the council agreed they would bring the cleaners in-house as soon
as feasible, the official statement was only issued the following morning.

It was a great victory for the Unison branch, and one that was only gained through their actions and the support
that they received from students, some teaching staff and other trade unions in organising highly visible protests
such as that today.
