Victory to the Visteon workers!

Support the Visteon occupations in Belfast, Enfield

On Tuesday morning workers occupied the Belfast Visteon car parts plant after they were told it would close with two hundred employees to lose their jobs on the spot.

Davy McMurray, regional organiser for Unite, speaking to the BBC slammed the "brutal” way the workers were sacked: "The administrators just came in, told them they were in administration and their employment was terminated. These people are going to be put out on the street tonight." Instead at least one hundred workers are sleeping in their factory to fight redundancy terms – the workers are being given nothing but the minimal state compensation.

Unite convenor John Maguire said the workers at the plant had "been treated disgracefully”: "We have been left with no choice but to occupy the factory to save our jobs and to defend jobs for the people of Belfast.” <
