Following the successful protest in Oxford Street on Saturday 25 February, where Right To Work protestors succeeded in closing down a high profile McDonald’s, we are calling for more protests.
We are giving McDonald’s until Wednesday to withdraw from Workfare or Wednesday evening will see protestors closing McDonald’s stores across the country.
The Workfare scheme is in tatters. Millions of people are opposed to the ConDem’s scheme that forces young unemployed workers to work for free.
