The Incarcerated Workers Organising Committee (IWW) in Wales, Scotland and England was launched in February 2016.
The IWW aims to support imprisoned fellow workers by being a point of contact and source of support on the outside to help prisoners organise on the inside. IWW knows that prisons punish those that resist, "which is why we are here on the out to make your struggles visible".
In North America, IWW members have organised and participated in prison shut downs, strikes, and collective actions to win victories in stopping state torture, medical neglect and more. The IWW has branches all over England, Wales, Scotland & Ireland that will join the struggle. Their motto is “An injury to one is an injury to all”.
IWOC is also fighting against prison expansion and the increased capitalist exploitation of prison labour, as well as against IPP sentences and other forms of injustice in the prison system.
