FIRST Union and @EtuUnion are devastated that WPI has confirmed their intention to close the Karioi and Tangiwai mills. We thank everyone who fought for the ~300 jobs and impacted families and communities.
This could have been avoided by our Government and electricity retailers.

Look at these awesome pictures of Nelson Woolworths members on strike today @NZPSA & @FIRST_Union

Thousands of Woolworths workers will walk off the job today.
