Power to the posties!

Gary, a socialist activist in Sunderland reports, 'I was down on the picket line with the posties at Sunderland depot (that's me at the back holding up the Socialist Worker). We spent two hours with the strikers this morning and had a great laugh. The camaraderie is great among them. They enjoyed the chocolate and crisps we took down and several bought our paper. We'll be back next week with a cash collection.'
