Building local campaign for the National Day of Community Protest against the IR laws on 15th November.

It's time to build a powerful and broad people's movement to oppose the draconian IR laws. Organise to stop the assault on rights and conditions of workers, families and communities.

The Western Suburbs Unions and Community Coalition is organising a range of activities to inform and mobilise the local community and workers for the Tuesday, 15th November rally. These include community Information stalls in local shopping centres and leaflet handouts at main railway stations in the west. See details below.

A WSUCC contingent will also be marching together behind our banner on 15th November. Local residents and workers not participating with a union are encouraged to travel with the WSUCC contingent. We will meet at 8.55am, Platform No. 1, Footscray Station, to travel on the 9.01am train to Flinders street.
