Inside LabourStart

Our campaign in support of utility workers in Zimbabwe has been running for four months — it got a one-month extension after IndustriALL asked for it — but has now been closed.  The campaign generated 5,776 messages sent, and of the 4,780 sent in English, only 10 came from Zimbabwe and a very disappointing 16 from South Africa.  712 people recommended the campaign on Facebook.  We don’t yet have a report from IndustriALL on what the effect of the campaign was.

This means we are now down to six active campaigns – the largest of which (Bahrain) has 11,210 supporters.
