RMT General Secretary Mick Cash said: "It says everything about the state of industry in Britain today that a donor to the party of government can wreck the lives of thousands of people, walk away and leave the taxpayer to pick up the redundancy costs.
Wave after wave of attacks on workers rights have created a climate of fear in workplaces across the land with City Link a sickening example of the ability of wealthy speculators to treat their workers like dirt.
RMT welcomes the support of both the TUC and the global trade union movement today in our continuing fight for justice for the City Link workers and our organisers are out at the depots as they reopen this morning. We will be making further announcements on the City Link campaign later this morning as we ramp up the political and industrial pressure. "
