We have stopped pool closures before & need to again & make more solidarity
Nottingham has a growing number of Industrial Workers of the World members who have recently in UK successfully stoppeed closure of Critchon campus, at a univerity in Glasgow are helping stop closures in NHS & played key support role in radicalising workers in Birmingham.
We support cooperatives & have members who campaign for better services for voluntary workers.

Dirtier, unsafe, unambitious and ashamed - making people wear uniforms can make them feel all of these things.

The City's staff don't belong to Michael Farter - why should they have to wear clothes to make his ego even bigger?
Let's fight together to keep leisure centres open, stop wasting money, stop the visual blight of stupid signs everywhere, and for crying out loud let people choose themselves what they want to wear.
Shouldn't Nottingham belong to the people who live and work here, not to an unelected president?

No to unenvironmental elitist pool policy & PR stunts!

Call mainstream media which ever medium you listen too.

Divisive policy, add your comments to council website comments, process can be taken to ombudsman on comment cards available at libraries also

Deliberately divisive uniform strategy here will cost 60,000 minimum for thousands of workers,although costs will be much more up by department budgets, cleaning, new uniforms, morale, staff leaving etc
