Protest against Primark

Primark's newest shop is opening this Thursday in Wood Green, north London. And we need you to join us for a demonstration letting the retailer know that we won't tolerate the exploitation of workers overseas any longer.

Primark's business is booming. The high street retailer is raking in record sales - £2.3 billion in this past year alone - and expanding its presence across the UK. Why is Primark thriving while the rest of the country struggles under a recession? The company, like many other retailers, cuts down production costs by sourcing its clothing from sweatshop labour overseas.

We want them to know that this is unacceptable - and that we demand it end now.

We'll be outside their new store in Wood Green with a washing line full of dirty laundry to remind Primark how their unethical practices harm workers around the world. At the protest we'll also be displaying personalised messages to the company from individuals across the UK.

To make sure our message is heard loud and clear, we'll need a huge turnout of concerned citizens. Let is know you're coming by writing to Seb Klier at sklier@waronwant.org
