“What Will Remain Will Not Be Worth the Name Library” - Barnet Council Library Workers Strike

Library and other workers in Barnet Council went on strike again today as part of a series of strikes and campaigns in protest of plans to outsource library services. The Council released a report last week detailing significant layoffs and other cuts to services. In response to the report, Hugh Jordan, the union's library convenor, said “what will remain will not be worth the name library.” Council employees are represented by UNISON.
