Hi, my name is Alex. I am part of Movement For Justice & the Strike To Win Committee that it set up. I am asking you to sign the Petition demanding that Newham Council reinstate Dennis Carabott. Dennis was working as a Refuse Driver for 18 years & has been a leader of his Newham Refuse co-workers for many years defending them against management abuse & discrimination. He has fought for his Refuse Loaders, who are one of lowest paid & do the most physically changeling work, to get better pay & recognition.

That’s why Newham Council decided to drive him out of the workforce & sacked him after a Kangaroo disciplinary process in July 2020. Dennis has continued to fight for his reinstatement and continues to support his co-workers, including being a part of the recent successful strike ballot, His Refuse co-workers are due to start their strike action in a few weeks.

Dennis’s Employment Tribunal hearing start on 25th – 29 September & will be open to the public. See his full witness statement & Tribunal address details, that we have published (Strike To Win bulletin No7) ahead of the hearing: https://movementforjustice.co.uk/

Fighting to win Dennis’s reinstatement, will be a victory for all workers who are playing a leading part of the strike movement.

Can you sign Dennis’ petition, circulate this message to people/groups you know. I would like to encourage you, if possible, to attend all/part of the ET hearing.
