LabourStart.

The United Nations General Assembly meets this week in New York and has to take an important decision: should the military dictators in Myanmar be seated?  The global unions are saying "no" - and demanding recognition of the National Unity Government instead.  They're also demanding accountability for the many crimes being committed by the regime -- and calling for an arms embargo and economic sanctions.

Please support the campaign by adding your name here

And please share this message with your friends, family and fellow union members.

Finally, here's a reminder of something we sent to you earlier this month: 

I am writing to ask for your help to keep LabourStart going.  I realise that this is the worst possible time to ask, with so many of us facing a disastrous cost-of-living crisis.  It's hard to give -- and it's hard to ask people to give.  

But there has never been a greater need for a powerful labour movement than now.  And the only way we are going to get a more powerful labour movement is if we all work together, across borders, for global solidarity.

That's at the heart of what LabourStart does.  

It's what those workers in Iran, Poland, Georgia and Cambodia have thanked us for.  

It's what we do.

Please give generously.  And please encourage your union to make a substantial donation too.

Thank you very much.
