Support locked out meatworkers

Last week I blogged about the CMP Rangitikei lockout, which has seen CMP Rangitikei lock out most of its staff in an effort to extort a 20% pay cut. The lockout is still going on, and those workers have now been unable to do their jobs and earn any money for nine days. If you'd like to help them then the CTU has set up a disputes fund for donations. The details are:

If CMP Rangitikei gets away with this, then other employers will try it. So, protect yourself, and support the meatworkers.
