Thursday, October 4th, workers from McDonald's, JD Wetherspoons and TGI Friday's are going on strike.

Workers from McDonald's, JD Wetherspoons and TGI Friday's will be on the picket line tomorrow demanding better working conditions across the hospitality sector: £10 an hour, an end to precarious contracts and for their right to a union to be respected.

Corporations like McDonald's and TGI Friday's are scared of bad press, and their strategy will be to stay quiet and hope this blows over. That's not what our movement does.
