London, UK. 18th November 2016. A cleaner from the Independent Workers Union CAIWU holds up a poster 'We are NOT the dirt WE CLEAN' in the lobby of Lloyds of London during the protest against Principle cleaning services. Two black workers, Lovebridge Acheamong and Wilson Palomeque who in April were awarded diplomas by Lloyds in recognition of their outstanding service during a power failure have been disciplined and dismissed from the site by Principle Cleaning Services following a window cleaning accident. White workers involved in a similar accident were left off without even a warning and the union says the sacking is racist discrimination. Another African worker was also recently dismissed for trivial reasons and the CAIWU say he was sacked for his trade union activities. The cleaners left after a brief protest inside and continued their protest for a short time outside the building. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
