Strike by Iranian oil workers spreads amid rising wave of protests and stoppages
The strike by Iranian oil contract workers is about to enter its fifth week. It has spread to 105 refineries, complexes and companies across 35 Iranian cities. The contract workers walked out over low pay and poor working conditions. They make around $300 a month, and are demanding to be paid around $500.
A defence committee to support the strikers issued a statement on Sunday, appealing to other workers to come out in support of the contract workers, including workers directly employed by the national oil company. It also appealed for rallies in support of the strikers.
Okello Oculi writes that the ‘sharing’ of power by the government gives room to instability
Nigerian political engineers invented the term ‘’DIARCHY’’ to couple hope from a position of weakness by politicians longing to share power with a military class that monopolised tools of violence. Both groups lacked popular legitimacy earned from votes cast in free and fair elections. Politicians envied the military’s access to a vast inflow of revenue from oil revenues.
This game of social engineering had been shown by Leopold Senghor in Senegal and Kwame Nkrumah in Ghana who argued for one-party politics as a borrowing from village communities which did not accept the notion of permanent opposition and hatred between rulers and members of community. Julius Nyerere invented electoral competition by members of the same family following a British colonial by which all (but one rebel member), were declared ‘’elected unopposed’’ without voting taking place.
Ashworth has been pressing on this key issue in Parliament and TV studios.
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer is trying to enforce the message by highlighting “the broken system of statutory sick pay,” as has Labour chair Anneliese Dodds.
It’s a crucial issue, but also one showing Labour’s weakness. It looks too much like another case of the party arriving a day late and a dollar short to the real fight.
In Britain, the minimum levels of sick pay are desperately low. Surveys show around 57 per cent of UK workers get decent “company sick pay” typically meaning full pay when off sick.
