Pay Up! pickets Sainsbury's over employment poverty wages - London, 28.05.2012
Formed by activists from UK Uncut, Occupy, Unite the Union and community organisations, Pay Up!, which plans to go national as quickly as possible, chose Sainsbury's to launch their campaign against "employment poverty" which sees thousands of Sainsbury's shop-floor employees being paid only the UK minimum wage which amounts to £6.08p per hour for over-21s, £4.98p for 18-20s and £3.68p for 16-17 yrs old school leavers. These employees, say Pay Up, should be receiving the nationally recognised "Living Wage" of £7.20 per hour in the regions, and £8.30p in London.
Sainsbury's has seen profit's rise 299% over the past 7 years, whilst their workers on low pay have been forced to accept a pay freeze which, in the face of current inflation, is effectively a wage cut, and a huge number of Sainsbury's full and part-time staff are having to apply for housing benefits and other benefits just to survive, despite the retail grocery giant posting year-end profits for 2011 of £712 million - a 7% increase on 2010, despite the double-dip recession.
It is outrageous, say Pay Up, that some Sainsbury's employees are so badly paid that they are forced to drain the benefits system just to survive, whilst Sainsbury's are turning a huge profit and are planning to increase core spending in 2012-2013 to £1bn and also to increase payouts to their stockholders. The company boasted disingenuously last week that their employees "will receive on average a £600 bonus", which translates to as little as £49 for many employees who are denied enough working hours to sustain a basic living. The overwhelming bulk of the bonus pot will go to the already-well paid managers and directors.

Note - vehicle is illegally equipped. In Oklahoma, only emergency vehicles are permitted to have red and blue lights, with the only exceptions being tow trucks and some college security departments. This, being neither, is not permitted - private property restrictions do not apply to lighting in this case due to the state-required licensing of security officers/guards.

Political artist Kaya Mar lampoons George Osborne on the Treasury Steps - London
On 04/10/2011 Political anti-War and anti-Cuts artist Kaya Mar displayed one of his many politically satirical oil on canvas caricatures lampooning dictators, war-mongers and heads of state - in this instance a naked George Gideon Osborne, (Chancellor of the Exchequer, architect of the swingeing austerity cuts to public services) naked, exposed, with one foot clumsily jammed in a large mop bucket as he claims to be cleaning up someone else's mess - as he held a brief one-man vigil on the steps of The Treasury, hoping that George Osborne might exit the building, catch sight of the painting and throw in the towel.
Mr. Mar's presence caused a bit of a panic and a flap amongst Treasury staff who were clearly alarmed that his painting could rapidly bring down the entire government, so he was told to get off the steps and stand on the pavement instead, thus safeguarding Her majesty's Brittanic Government from satirical peril.
There were no arrests, although a passing elderly American tourist muttered "Oh my, now THAT's disrespectful", before taking a photo of the painting, with a big grin on her face. Another man muttered something darkly about abolishing all money and waved a pamphlet around before vanishing across the road and into St. James' Park, but despite this flagrant act of sedition there was still no sign of a police van.
Kaya's work can be seen at www.kayamar.co.uk, which is in the process of being re-designed - and is on permanent display at the Museum of London and the Imperial War Museum.
