STRIKING University College London (UCL) and St Mungo’s workers united today in a joint protest targeting members of their employers’ governing bodies.

The homelessness charity’s staff are in the ninth week of an indefinite strike over pay, while UCL security guards are fighting “racist” fire-and-rehire tactics at the university.

They held joint rallies at a number of banks and offices in the City of London, targeting workplaces linked to St Mungo’s trustees and members of the UCL council over their refusal to engage with workers’ appeals.
