ANZ workers strike

By Fightback Admin

ANZ workers across Aotearoa/NZ (members of FIRST Union) went on strike today, for secure hours and better wages.

ANZ indebts customers and rips off staff, while CEO David Hisco makes $2000/hr.

With more attacks on unions, workers and beneficiaries on the way, collective action like this is exactly what we need. Kia kaha!
