If anybody feels that it is important to support migrant workers her in the UK it is as important to support free migration of people elsewhere. Which I why I am posting this here.
It is news from a Continent where May Day is not available. Where even the Illegal Worker is expected to Work on the International Workers Holiday. (Uncivilised to my way of thinking). Should America make migration more difficult the effect will be for other countries to emulate their bad behaviour. If you object to the reposting I can apologise. If you miss the opportunity to listen to other people you may end up listening when it is too late.

Between 500,000 and 1 million people filled the streets of downtown Los Angeles on March 25th, 2006 to protest the anti-immigrant bill HR4437, which would make all 12 million undocumented people in the United States into felons as well as anyone who aids undocumented people in anyway. Families, labor, civic, religious and political groups came out strong in a mostly Latino demonstration, overwhelming all the organizers' expectations. City officials are saying it is the largest demonstration they have ever seen. Both the Mayor and the Chief of police attended the demonstration and voiced opposition to the proposed anti-lmmigrant law which is to be debated in the Senate being debated right now. This march came in the wave of many other large demonstrations against this bill taking place in Chicago, Washington DC, Arizona, and and Missouri.

1. Handing out awards to employers who make gesturs to the idea of a 'living wage' - presumaby, these awards are handed to people who are paid many many times more than the migrant (and other) workers they exploit.

2. The setting up of the 'London Citizens' Workers' Association'. Workers should be organised into trade unions. If this is a union, then it is treading on other unions' turf. If it is not, then why is it trying to organise workers into something short of a union?
