Tens of thousands of members of the public are backing our Asda workers in their fight says GMB Union

GMB, Britain’s general union, has described rocketing hate crime figures as ‘heart-breaking and enraging.’

A Hollywood film star and Dr Who legend have joined 23,000 members of the public in backing Asda workers’ fight against a controversial new contract.

Dr Who star Paul Mcgann, who also starred in cult hit Withnail and I and Aliens 3, and Rob Delaney, who appeared in Catastrophe and Deadpool 2, both leant their support ahead of a mass protest in Leeds on Wednesday [October 16, 2019].

The election for our General Secretary and Treasurer will take place over the coming weeks.  This is clearly an important election which will determine who will lead the union for the next five years.

GMB members and activists will continue the fight to get justice for ASDA workers over the continuing issue of contract changes.  A new round of demos will take place on the following dates so please do your best to come along and support our ASDA members.
