London, UK. 7th January 2017. Class War support the grass roots trade union United Voices of the World at their protest at Harrods calling for 100% of the service charges to go to staff rather than the vast profits of the owners, the Qatari royal family. They also want conditions and wages to be improved for waiters who are currently paid at or a few pence per hour above the legal minimum, overworked and poorly managed. The robust but peaceful protest took place outside a Harrods guarded by large numbers of police, with protesters being threatened with charges of aggravated trespass if they entered the store. There were two arrests for trivial offences. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
