Building internationalism and solidarity
Why trade unionists should build the movement for peace in Palestine and Ukraine, posits JOE WILSON

AS trade unionists, we stand at a critical juncture. The conflicts in Palestine and Ukraine are not just distant tragedies; they are ongoing catastrophes in which Britain is complicit.
Our duty is to build a labour movement that wins in the workplace, but also one which promotes peace and challenges the systems that perpetuate these wars.
British trade unionists need to mobilise for peace in places such as Palestine and Ukraine, by highlighting the roles of the US, Nato and British arms industries in fuelling these and other conflicts.
