London: Protests over exploited city wardens

WORKERS and the local community will unite today to spam a London business forum in response to its forcing unemployed people to work unpaid as city wardens as part of a workfare scheme.

Wardens at Finsbury Park station in north London are being required to work 30 hours a week without pay for six months in return for their jobseekers allowance.

The workers are hired by the Finsbury Park Business Forum, which manages business interests in the area.
