(en) Britain, Egham and Staines Workfare Pickets Report
Date
Sat, 12 May 2012 11:56:23 +0300
On 1st May, as part of International Worker’s Day, Staines Anarchists embarked on an
anti-workfare tour in Egham and Staines. Tesco, WHSmith, the Jobcentre and McDonald’s were
all picketed for the part they play in the workfare schemes. ---- Several hundred leaflets
detailing the nature of workfare were distributed and for the most part locals were
interested to hear about what workfare involves and what it means for workers. ---- Many
locals were surprised to hear that this kind of scheme, that often allows businesses free
labour, takes place. One person commented, “Forced, unpaid work?! Sounds like slavery to
me”. ---- But Mayday for Staines Anarchists wasn’t all work(fare) and no play. In the
evening the group met up with other local activists for a Mayday celebration.
