Venue\: Exmouth Arms\, Star Cross St\, Euston

The organisers write ...

As part of the London Shop Stewards Network is holding this meeting as part of its program aimed at supporting London CWU postal workers.

At the meeting we will be proposing that in light of the attacks on the CWU postal workers it is necessary to push for our individual unions to coordinate industrial action in existing/coming disputes with CWU strike dates.

Also\, that we start building for “supportive actions” if called for by the CWU postal workers.

Venue\: Unity House

Within the next few months\, RMT will hold conferences for young members\, women members\, black and ethnic minority members\, and lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender members.

Members put issues on the agendas of these conferences by getting their branch to submit a resolution. But that can be a bit daunting\, so the Regional Council is holding a workshop on how to write resolutions. We will discuss the issues that these groups of members face at work and in wider society\, and learn the practicalities of putting it down on paper as a resolution.
