Comrades,

The Industrial Workers of the World which makes up the Wales, Ireland, Scotland & England Regional Administration (or WISE-RA) wish to take this moment to extend our love and solidarity at this time, with the members of La Suiza Six in Xixón.

The decision made by the Supreme Court on Monday 24th June 2024 was an attack, not only against the six members of the Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (CNT) but an attack upon all of us.

The decision signifies that every union activist is now a target for taking a stand against the bosses.

As a union we not only condemned, but equally call upon those of our class who stand for workers rights and social justice to take a stand against those who wish to accuse the workers movement of criminal behaviour.

Is it a crime to stand against intimidation, bullying behaviour or the theft of our wages? We believe not!

We call for the harassment of trade union activists to end. We call for an end to false charges to be immediately dropped.

In extending our solidarity to each and everyone of La Suiza Six we echo the call that you are not alone. You are not alone as the Industrial Workers of the World, a sister organisation to the CNT within the International Confederation of Labour, we are with you in struggle as an injury to one is an injury to all!

IWW WISE-RA
