Diageo Campaign - Keep Up The Pressure

In the past few weeks the campaign to save jobs at Johnnie Walker has received a huge boost from two of the largest trade unions in the USA, showing our campaign's message has reached beyond the UK and is really having an effect.

Now we need to ram home our message.

In a few weeks time, Diageo shareholders will be meeting for their Annual General Meeting. They certainly know about our campaign - we've already sent half a million emails to the big institutional shareholders who squeeze profits out of Diageo. But we need to keep the pressure on them. Our campaign won't let them callously cut jobs - while making a 2 billion pounds profit. We're planning a campaign to generate media coverage to contrast their massive profits with their savage job cuts in Scotland, and we need your help.

We're asking our supporters to write a short, sharp message to make the people who own Diageo see sense. We'll then put all of our supporters' messages in a giant bottle and deliver it to their door. To be part of this moment, write your message now:

It will only take you a minute or two and you'll be joining hundreds of people who have already sent their message. It's important that we do this - from day one we've known that the only way we'll save these jobs is by taking on Diageo, exposing their willingness to turn their backs on the workers who built their success. With your help we'll do this - a giant bottle full of messages to Diageo - and a great story in the press.


We'll deliver the message right to Diageo's - and the shareholders' - front door and we'll show that our campaign will not go away. We can't do this without you.
