FAU solidarity action against OBI

At the 25th and 26th of february the first federal day of action of the FAU-TAA against the building and gardening supplies store OBI took place. The FAU is participating as the german section of the IWA - international workers association - supporting the polish anarchosyndicalists of ZSP in working-struggle. The ZSP was calling for action against OBI - and asked the FAU specially as the headquarter of OBI is located in germany.

Reason was the conflict caused by some leaders of OBI in several polish cities, who were bullying, threatening and started work-related repression against workers, who started ZSP side groups. One centre for the conflict was Krakow with its two OBI-shops. After first actions against OBI in germany took place allready two weeks ago ( http://de.indymedia.org/2011/02/300565.shtml), the campaign is starting to get dynamics now. (full article in german
