Pay Equity action on 30th June

Thanks to the numerous people who have sent me this, including Idiot/Savant. It sounds like there will also be something happening in Auckland, and I'm hoping to confirm the details soon. If you know of anything in your neck of the woods do get in touch!

The 30th June has been picked as it is the day that the Department of Labour's Pay and Employment Equity investigations unit is officially disbanded.

A vocal and boisterous group of young women from high schools, university and the wider community gathered together to protest Nationals scrapping of the Department of Labour’s Pay and Employment Equity Unit. A great deal of support was shown for the protestors by passing cars, buses, cyclists and pedestrians
