Ministry of Justice cleaners protest
Ministry of Justice, London, UK. Thu 9 Aug 2018
The UVW cleaners at the Ministry of Justice are also striking for
a living wage and Class War came to support them
The banner says 'On Strike For A Living Wage' - and the cleaners have
been on strike for 3 days
Members of the IWGB came to give their support
There were a few drops of rain as the protest started
but it soon began to rain more heavily
and it was soon really pouring

A cleaner speaks
People leaving work walk through the protest
and are asked if they will contribute to the strike fund
Leaflets tell workers coming out from the Ministry of Justice why
their cleaners are striking
Another cleaner speaks
People are getting really wet and Petros tries to lead the protest
inside the Ministry of Justice, but he is stopped
by security staff - and he videos them on his phone
Others try to go inside but are stopped
The speeches continue in the torrential rain
