BRITAIN’S communists have issued a call for international working-class solidarity with 20,000 striking oil, gas and petrochemical workers in Iran. 

Nationwide strikes by Iran’s oil and gas contract workers began on June 20 and spread to over 110 companies.

They are demanding wage increases, permanent contracts, 14 days-on, 14 days-off work rotation, better dormitories, more safety measures and removal of corrupt middleman contractors.
