General Secretary Steve Gillan introduces speakers at an
event in Parliament held last month to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the removal of prison officers’ right to take industrial action and to urge support for the union’s ongoing campaign for this right to be restored throughout the UK, as it has already been in Scotland.
Those participating include National Chair Mark Fairhurst,
TUC General Secretary Paul Nowak, Mick Whelan from Aslef, Mick Lynch from the RMT, Martin Kavanagh of PCS, and Jo Grady of the University and Colleges Union.
Parliamentarians who supported and spoke at the event were members of the Justice team such as Lord John Atlee and former POA branch chair-now-MP Sally Jameson, Parliamentary Justice Union’s chair Liz Saville Roberts MP, Jeremy Corbyn MP and Justice Select Committee Chair Andy Slaughter MP. Clare Mellor from leading trade
union law firm Thompsons also contributed.
A strong show of support from the union’s many friends and
allies both inside and outside Westminster. Original sound recording by Consequential Films. More information at poauk.org.uk.
