National Gallery Staff on strike for a minimun London Wage

NATIONAL GALLERY STAFF CAMPAIGNING FOR A LIVING WAGE


PCS members work at the National galleries in Uk
as wardens and retail staff.
The staff are taking  strike action today and tomorrow
over the pay offer they have received  from the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square
 which at £7.60 per hour, the staff claim is below the
London Living Wage Standard.
Some staff claim that they need
to claim state subsidies to enable them to continue to
work at the National Gallery under the current wage conditions.

London photographer Alan Roxborough was on the scene at Trafalgar Square this morning.
