NUJ members are to strike in protest at plans to make them pay more, work longer and get significantly lower pensions. Please support NUJ members fighting for fair pensions at the BBC.
Journalists at the BBC stand to lose thousands of pounds every year under draconian new pension plans set to be imposed at the Corporation.
In response, the National Union of Journalists (NUJ) has announced dates for strike action. NUJ members will strike for 48 hours on 5/6 November and 15/16 November with further dates to be announced.
Union members will also refuse to take on additional duties or volunteer for acting up as part of an indefinite work to rule starting on Friday 5 November.
Jeremy Dear, NUJ General Secretary said:
"Could you afford to simply give away £100,000, £25,000 or even ‘just’ £10,000? Of course not. But those are the kinds of sums every journalist faces losing under the BBC’s latest pension proposal. BBC journalists are not asking for higher pensions. They are not even saying they wouldn’t consider paying more or working longer for a fair pension settlement. That means a deal based on the real deficit in the scheme, not speculative and questionable figures. It means a pension which does not lose a significant part of its value every single year for the rest of their lives – which is what will happen under the current proposals. And it should be a deal that means what has been promised to them - which they have already paid for - is protected. The current offer fails those tests and it fails BBC staff. That’s why they’ve been left with no choice but to take industrial action on 5 and 6 November and 15 and 16 November. They can’t afford not to…and they need YOUR support"

Defend South Manchester Law Centre
Defend South Manchester Law Centre
DEFEND LEGAL AID. PROTECT ACCESS TO JUSTICE. SAVE THE LAW CENTRE.
The law centre’s judicial review of the Legal Services Commission immigration tendering process is to be heard on Monday, 8 November at the Civil Justice Centre, on Bridge Street, next to the peoples history museum.
There will be a protest outside the civil justice centre at 9:30am, before the JR hearing. The hearing is due to start at 10:30.
We would appreciate your attendance at the protest and also in the court for hearing.
So that the Judge hearing the case can see its not just about legal issues: the case is of great importance to the people of Manchester.
We look forward to seeing you there.

For more information on the campaign to keep the Law Centre open go to www.smlc.org.uk
South Manchester Law Centre has been providing free legal advice and representation to the Manchester community for the last 35 years.
Our expertise is in Women's rights, Immigration and Asylum Law.
The problem...
The Law Centres ability to provide these services is under threat because of a severe reduction in its funding from both Manchester City Council and the Legal Services Commission. Funding for Welfare Rights, Housing and Employment has already been withdrawn.
The Result...
As you may have guessed, the result of these cuts will be severe. The Law Centre is now faced with closure. This will mean the death of an organisation that has, for 35 years been a pillar of the community, helping the most vulnerable members of society to access advice and and protect their rights. This will leave;•NO Free court representation for employment law or benefits issues
•NO Free Asylum and Immigration advice in South Manchester
•NO Choice of providers for free advice
•NO Law Centres in Manchester
Why we need you...We now need members of the community to help us fight these cuts. We demand that Manchester City Council and the Legal Services Commission continue to fund the Law Centre to help us deliver services to the most vulnerable in YOUR community.

A DAY OF SHOCKING VIOLENCE AGAINST LONDON'S FIREFIGHTERS
Darren Johnson, green party member of the London Assembly (he also sits on the London Fire Authority), said: "- horrified that firefighters who were lawfully picketing were injured in this way - there needs to be thorough investigation and I will be tabling a formal question at next Fire Authority meeting for 18 November."

> A DAY OF SHOCKING VIOLENCE AGAINST LONDON'S FIREFIGHTERS Vehicles driven at speed into three FBU pickets Two strikebreakers arrested
Strikebreaking contractors refuse first aid equipment to the injured Yesterday, three members of the Fire Brigades Union were hit and hurt by speeding vehicles driven by strikebreakers.
First, a Croydon firefighter was hit by a speeding car driven by a
non-union manager at Croydon fire station. FBU president Mick Shaw, who
was there, described what happened.
>
"A fire engine returned from an incident and drove into the fire
station, its crew refusing to wind down their windows and talk to the
pickets. But at least it drove slowly, at the brigade maximum of five
mph, so that the pickets could get out of the way before they were mown
down.
>
"It was followed by a car driven by the officers, and as the pickets
tried to talk to the driver of the car, it accelerated suddenly and one of the striking firefighters was thrown up and into the windscreen, then several feet in front of the car.
"We asked the AssetCo employees who had control of our fire station for
the first aid kit and some blankets, but they would not give them to us despite the obviously serious nature of the injuries.
"An ambulance was called at once, and the ambulance crew asked for an
air ambulance. Our member was not able to move during the 25 minutes
between being hit and being taken away in the ambulance."
>
The LFB manager was arrested at the scene. Mr Shaw and general secretary Matt Wrack intend to visit the member (whose name cannot be given until his family consents) today, Tuesday. It is understood he has injuries to his spleen and spine.
>
Second, two hours after the strike, Dagenham firefighter Graham Beers
held his hand up at the side of a road in Southwark, to signal to the
crew of a fire engine being returned to Southwark Fire Station that they should stop and speak to him. "The fire engine swerved towards me and hit my hand" says Mr Beers, who suffered a sprained and badly bruised hand.
>
Third, a fire engine was deliberately driven into the FBU London
representative Ian Leahair, at Southwark fire station. This happened
more than two hours after the strike ended.
>
There was a huge police presence at Southwark, and FBU members who were
there accepted with cheerful good humour being penned in across the
road, away from the incoming fire engines. Just eight pickets were
allowed.
>
Although the strike ended at six, the fire engines did not start coming
until about 8 pm. When they did start coming, the permitted eight
pickets, in the midst of dozens of police officers, stood in front and
asked the drivers to stop while they spoke to them. The first two fire engines stopped, and waited for the two minutes or so the police allowed the eight pickets to try to talk to them, without winding down their windows.
>
But the third didn't stop. It just kept coming. As the pickets fled
before it, the great, heavy fire engine actually picked up speed, and
hit Ian Leahair and then one of the police officers, before the police
finally persuaded the driver to stop. By then, Ian Leahair's legs and
half his body were underneath the fire engine and he was clearly in
pain. If he had been standing an inch or so further left, his legs would have been crushed under the fire engine's wheels.
FBU pickets yelled at the driver to reverse, but he would not do so
until instructed to do so by the police. The police officer, we
understand, had a bruised leg. Ian Leahair has injured ribs. He was
pulled out and helped to the side of the road.
>
The fire engine was deliberately driven at the pickets. There was no
reason to do this. The driver cannot have felt in any way intimidated.
He could see at least 50 police officers who would have protected him,
had any violence been offered, which it was not.
>
After that, the police handled the arrival of the rest of the fire
engines very differently. They decided, with great fairness, that they
were not going to stop the picketing because a driver had endangered the pickets. So police officers themselves stopped the fire engines, gave the pickets their couple of minutes, then cleared the way for the
engines.
>
The police, in effect, began to protect the pickets from the
strikebreakers. It was the police who ensured the right to lawful
picketing.
>
FBU general secretary Matt Wrack said today: "This has been a day of
shocking violence directed at London's firefighters. "An incredible pattern seems to be emerging. It looks as though the private company hired to do our work has instructed its drivers to drive
fast through picket lines. We ended the day in the extraordinary
situation where the police had to protect striking firefighters from
recklessly speeding vehicles, which were driven by those paid to break
the strike.
>
"If our people had done a fraction of what they did, there would be
inflammatory and self-righteous condemnation from the London Fire
Brigade, and no doubt it would find something else from the personnel
files to feed to its friends in right wing newspapers. But they have not even condemned what happened. Can it possibly be that they do not care about the danger in which their contractor has placed their LFB's own employees? Could they, incredibly, even be a party to decisions which have led to this? They have brought hired thugs into London who have driven around at speed with their faces hidden by balaclavas in an
attempt to menace and intimidate our members. Tragically three of our
members have been injured as a result. I wonder whether the Prime
Minister, Boris Johnson and the others who have spent the past week
condemning the FBU for our industrial action will now condemn this
violence against us."
