Once again Spirit of Revolt, and Glasgow Keelie Group, with assistance from other comrades put on a very moving and poignant display on Glasgow Green Drying Green area to mark Workers Memorial Day. The display will stay until after the May Day picnic on the Green May 1st. 3pm, to be held on the Drying Green, come along and celebrate workers day, May Day on The Green. This year saw the addition of high vis jackets, listing some of the deaths, illnesses and injuries people suffer from just trying to earn their daily bread. In no civilised society should working to survive risk life and limb, however in this society, where profit is the main motive of production, human welfare is listed as a cost and must be minimised to help increase profits for the shareholders who seldom indulge in the actual work, they just reap the bonuses. Not until we the workers own the means of production and distribution will we see human safety and well being at the top of the list. Only we, the ordinary people can create that environment, don't expect the shareholders and financiers to alter a system that allows them to live a life of luxury at other people's expense.
