In keeping with the theme of this year’s May Day celebrations, Unite to Fight, trade unionists urged one another to work together to save the labour movement from decimation.
All the leaders who spoke at the virtual event on Saturday criticised and accused the Government as well and employers of unfair practices.
Head of the Seamen and Waterfront Workers Trade Union, Michael Annisette, sought to justify why the three federations left the National Tripartite Advisory Council (NTAC).

THE EDITOR: Déjà vu! First day of school horror. It is like someone put 2020 on repeat. This is the only way to describe the news that greeted the teaching fraternity on the reopening of school.
January 2020, on the first day of school, principal Jezelle Phillip was stabbed to death by a male relative as her students looked on. On Monday, another first day of school, we receive news of the murder of Preysal Secondary School teacher Suzette Sylvester.
As the TT Unified Teachers’ Association joins the rest of the nation in mourning, we express sincere condolences to the family and colleagues of Sylvester and pray that her soul rests in peace.
