Workers' Liberty

Management have decided that all Station Supervisors have to attend a 'inclusion, equality and diversity' course. Many people will think teaching people how to be 'politically correct' is a waste of time, some will think that the Underground is a very diverse workplace anyway and that we know all we need to know about inclusion.

We'll see whether management's take on these issues turns out to be a waste of time. But we should bear in mind that there are still important struggles which women, black and ethnic minority and LGBT workers face in our workplace and in this society which is far from equal.

Our unions try to fight these struggles. However much of a waste of time you think 'political correctness' or management's latest initiative is, that should not be used to ridicule 'feminism', rights for our members and and the fight for equality that union members are a part of.
