A Sign of Panic

Our clients in London tell us that the trade unions are up to their usual tricks.

Having sat on their backsides for years and kept people in the dark about equal pay - as soon as Action 4 Equality comes along - they start putting out scare stories about our fees.

The latest one is that anybody seeking to pursue a claim with Action 4 Equality and Stefan Cross must pay £500 up front before we will take on their case - but this is a complete lie.

No one has to pay a single penny up front - and we only charge a fee if we deliver a successful outcome - whereas the unions have been taking their members contributions for years - and achieved precisely nothing. If anything, things have got worse!

The unions peddle the same nonsense all the time - to stop people making equal pay claims - not to help their members.

And what a cheek - coming from the same geniuses who have cost their members thousands of pounds over the past 10 years - by continuing to favour traditional male jobs within London councils.

So, don't believe the propaganda of desperate trade unions hacks - they are on the run because of Action 4 Equality and Stefan Cross - and because they have little else to say, they make up lies and rumours which they know to be false.

What they should be asking their members (and non-union members) is:

"DO YOU REALISE THAT YOUR JOB IS PAID £3 OR £4 PER HOUR LESS THAN A COUNCIL REFUSE WORKER OR GARDENER - AND THAT YOU HAVE AN EQUAL PAY CLAIM WORTH THOUSANDS OF POUNDS?"

But rather than tell their members the truth - the unions would rather divert attention away from their own shameful track record.

The only people telling union members and non-union members what their rights are on equal pay - are Action 4 Equality London and Stefan Cross.
