END SCANDAL OF SWEATSHOPS!
The Guardian has revealed a new report that exposes the continued exploitation of overseas workers by many of Britain's top brands, including French Connection and River Island.
We have the proof that these companies' practices mean that thousands of men and women are working as sweatshop slaves - and now we need to act.
Many companies are doing nothing to address this shameful situation. We've identified the 15 worst offenders. Now we want all our supporters to contact the CEOs of these companies to name and shame them. Please help us seize this moment: http://www.LoveFashionHateSweatshops.org/Disgraced
Contacting the people responsible for this exploitation will take you less than a minute. But together we'll send a deafening call for justice.It is so important we act. Workers who make clothes for these companies work excessive hours, in appalling conditions. And - in an industry that generates £36 billion in the UK alone - they're lucky if they earn more than £1 a day.Despite the hardships they endure, they've got no chance to properly feed, clothe or house their families. It's a disgrace - and this is your chance to put pressure on the people who prop up this system.These CEOs have a simple question to answer - if not now, then when? Join with us to get a response:http://www.LoveFashionHateSweatshops.org/DisgracedThe livelihoods of thousands of men and women are at risk when they try to stand up for themselves. For daring to oppose the system, they're often fired, harassed or even abused by their employers.So we've got to stand with them. Please do your part now - and then forward this email to all of your friends.
