London, UK. June 29th, 2016. Petros Elia, General Secretary of the United Voices of the World union speaks at the rally on the 22nd day of the strike by cleaners employed by anti-union cleaning contractor Thames Cleaning at 100 Wood St. The rally marked the start of a national campaign against against CBRE, the Fortune 500 commercial real estate company who own the offices and support Thames who allege they cannot afford to pay cleaners a living wage, but wasted over £20,000 trying to get an injunction to stop the strike, an action which landed the grass-roots union with crippling legal costs.
