"Solidarity", a new trade union bulletin opposed to social partnership, is to be launched, with a pilot edition, next month.
A broad range of trade union activists have agreed to produce the bulletin, to play a part in the struggle to forge a "new unionism" which breaks with the narrow concerns of "non-political" trade unionism and fights for the interests of the working class and oppressed.
"Solidarity" will be a debating forum and organiser, bringing together the experiences of the left across the trade unions, opposing subordination to the global market and fighting for practical working class internationalism, against privatisation in any form and for social ownership, against all state interference in the trade unions and for democratisation of the unions with freedom from bureaucratic control.
Having already brought together a significant layer of activists, the aim now is to attract union branches to sponsor "Solidarity" and order advance copies of the pilot issue.
