This morning (Saturday 18th February), the Social Work Action Network (SWAN) joined the Right to Work Coalition and others to temporarily shut down the Tesco Express store opposite the Houses of Parliament in Westminster.
Across the nation today, similar actions are taking place to stop Tesco cashing in on unpaid labour, as part of the government’s Work Programme , which claims to be breaking ‘the cycle of benefit dependency.’
