Come and join us this Sat to protest at JJB Sports withdrawal of a pay rise, for its already low-paid workers, right here in the UK.

Their multi-millionaire owner has withdrawn a pay offer and dismissed the GMB union as "communists" for insisting on a rise to catch up with inflation.

Join us to say Balls to JJB, this Sat (Nov 11).

Make your own ball-shaped placard / come dressed as a ball (or balls) or just come along.
