London, 16/03/2017. Today, United Voices of the World the union and Justice for LSE Cleaners held the second day of their 2 day strike to protest against cleaners working conditions, equal sick pay, reduced work load, holidays etc, to be made equal to the other workers directly employed by LSE (cleaners employer is a company called Noonan). In the 126-year history of the LSE (London School of Economics and Political Studies) this strike is the first to be held by cleaners or outsourced workers. In the afternoon, Professor David Graeber (American anthropologist, anarchist activist, author, he is Professor of Anthropology at LSE), Alpa Shah (Associate Professor - Reader - in the Department of Anthropology at LSE) and members of "Movement For Justice By Any Means Necessary" (MFJ - https://www.facebook.com/movementforjustice/) held lectures outside the LSE Students' Union. The teaches out were respectively called: David Graeber: "Pirats and Sick Pay", and Alpa Shah: "Bring Our Cleaners Back In: A Global Perspective On Outsourcing".
