CWU TV Uncovered | Solidarity for Colombia
Trade Unions across the globe are not treated in the same way as trade unions in the UK especially in Colombia. Justice for Colombia campaigns for human rights, workers rights and searches for peace with social justice in the South American country. With trade unionist and human rights campaigns being murdered year after year, CWU is committed to raising awareness of this campaign. CWU General Secretary Billy Hayes attended a candlelit vigil at TUC Congress House. (Created December 2010)
