WORKERS at the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) and Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) came together today to demand an end to “poverty wages” for outsourced staff.
Civil Service union PCS and the United Voices of the World (UVW) marched from the MoJ to BEIS headquarters in central London to demand all staff in government departments be paid the London living wage of £10.20 an hour.
UVW organiser Shiri Shalmy told the crowd: “We know that change is going to happen on the streets, through strikes, through occupations and through direct actions, led by the workers and with support from comrades in the trade union movement.”
