A man was arrested by plain clothes Police following an incident early on Monday morning during a strike by station attendants at Elephant and Castle Underground station. RMT members were staging a strike at the station over the sacking of Jerome Bowes a member who had been involved in a scuffle with a drunk traveller on News Years Eve. At around 6.30am a man who was described as well dressed approached the picket line and allegedly shouted “You never stick up for white people do you?”.
A small demonstration called by London IWW in support of a radical union, 'Workers' Initiative' (Inicjatiwa Pracownicza) in Poland. The demo was called to support WI members being discriminated against in the Polish postal service, and particularly the sacking of a member - Bartosz Kantorczyk - for his lead role in a wave of strikes last year.
