London's National Gallery is one of the world's greatest art museums. It attracts over six million visitors a year, making it the second most popular attraction in the UK.It is also the scene of a bitter industrial dispute, with staff on strike since February this year.
The gallery's managers have decided to privatize two thirds of the staff, outsourcing part of it to a private security company which boasts that it pays a lower rate to staff.
And they have sacked the union's staff representative, Candy Udwin, and refused her appeal for reinstatement.
It is time for the National Gallery to start behaving like a responsible employer.
The Public and Commercial Services union (PCS) and Public Services International (PSI) have jointly launched a campaign on LabourStart supporting the union demands and calling for Candy's reinstatment.

The union is also asking for all of us to give financial support to sustain the campaign. To donate funds to the campaign, click here.
Thank you for your support!
