The Support Group would also direct people to the official strike site , linked below.
The "outline of the dispute" section is a week by week account of the strike and the various events.
In the latest bizarre twist , MTL are attempting to ban the use of the word scab .
Another trip to the high court tomorrow (Thursday 3rd) as company tries to extend injunction preventing trade unions and workers describing the MTL scabs as scabs.
We are calling on people to assemble outside between 10.30 and 11 am .
Below are links to recent media coverage, and as always, check out the official strike site as linked.
