Lambeth Libraries

Good news about the Libraries dispute in Lambeth. The decisive action of activists within the branch and the successful ballot that took place helped secure an agreement reached yesterday with the Council accepting that there is no need for compulsory redundancies in the area. The strike was therefore called off as we have met the objective.

This is a clear message to all the unions facing the great challenge of attacks on jobs and services, there is a better chance of winning a battle if decisive action is taken. More than 90% of Library workers voted to take strike action a fact, in my opinion and that of others, that helped secure the agreement. Well done to the Librarians!
