The Greyhound Waste Company has gotten an injunction from the High Court to prevent any protestor interfering with their business.
In the words of the judge, ‘it is an injunction against the world’.
Greyhound is trying to reduce the wages of its drivers by 35%, in one of the most audacious attacks on organised workers.
The unions need to respond vigorously to this blatant example of legal class bias.
In 2005, when a similar attack was mounted on Irish Ferries workers, a massive national demonstration was called during working hours.
It is time to do the same again to show solidarity with Greyhound workers and to send out a clear signal to any employer that there will be no more wage cuts.
