(en) Britain, SolPed - Newcastle puts the 'Sol' in Solidarity!

A warm, sunny day in Newcastle seemed appropriate weather to turn the heat up on Santander 
& shine a light on their slave labour policies and Union repression. We were joined by two 
comrades from USI as our banner was unfurled outside the Northumberland Street branch. 
---- There was lots of interest from workers on their lunch-break for whom solidarity with 
our CNT comrades in Spain needed little explanation. Most people on Tyneside have friends 
or family who have suffered from outsourced labour practices & our presence today was well 
recieved. ---- An appearance by a flustered branch manager, who took some photos to 'pass 
on' our condemnation of Santander's abuse of workers' topped off an effective picket of 
this corrupt & criminal bank.
