Support Coventry firefighters!

FBU members on the picket line at Radford

Members of the FBU took strike today across the country from 6pm-10pm in the ongoing dispute over pensions. The strike took place during the same week it was announced that MP’s would receive a 11 per cent increase in their pay which will also increase their pension entitlement. Who do we value more? Snouts in the trough MP’s or firefighters who do a vital job for our society? Most people will say it should be firefighters!

Members of the Socialist Party and Coventry TUC visited the picket line at Radford to show support. There is a further strike tomorrow evening 6pm-10pm and we urge the maximum support and solidarity for those taking action.
