"Iraq Unions Solidarity" launched

At TUC Solidarity Conference, "Trade Unions in Iraq: What British Unions Can do to help" on February 14th, it was agreed to set up a grassroots Trade Union network to support, fundraise and co-ordinate efforts to support the Iraqi Trade Union movement, in line with TUC policy.
Owen Tudor, International Secretary of the TUC said, "There are some things the TUC cannot do, one is setting up grassroots organisations. This idea shows optimism of the will. Go ahead and do it."
To begin to set up the network, we will meet on Thursday March 3rd at 7.30pm, Calthorpe Arms, 252 Grays Inn Road, WC1.
You only need to bring your ideas and your optimism!
