Hospital workers protest National’s wage freeze

Hundreds of hospitals workers from all over the country took protest action against National’s wage freeze today. Here’s a photo from the picket line:

The workers passed a resolution calling for a 24 hour mass protest stoppage in November involving as many public sector workers as possible.

With Parliamentary Services and the Ministry of Justice already stepping up industrial action we could be seeing the beginnings of a major fightback from public sector workers.

Update: Darien Fenton has more photos over at Red Alert.
