Picturehouse staff members at Hackney, The Ritzy in Brixton, Crouch End, Central and now East Dulwich are demanding a 7% wage increase in order to get the London Living Wage (LLW) of £9.75 per hour. Although tickets at Picturehouse Central in Piccadilly Circus can cost up to £16, more and more staff are still on zero hours contracts and without adequate parental leave pay or sick pay. Picturehouse, owned by Europe's second largest cinema chain Cineworld, pitch themselves as an ethical business. Yet they still don't treat their staff fairly. According to BECTU, in the last financial year, Cineworld CEO Moshe (Mooky) Greidinger doubled his income to £2.588m from £1.213m in 2015, while Mr Greidinger's brother and deputy CEO of Cineworld, Israel Greidinger doubled his pay in the same period to £1.783m from £849,000. Cineworld's finances also suggest they could pay the LLW. The FTSE- 250 company's post-tax profit figures have now risen from £83.8 million in 2015 to £93.8 million in 2016, trebling its share price in five years. LIKE TRUMP BUT GOOD Florida Manatees Will Survive For Another Century! India plans to make every car electric by 2030 #grime4Corbyn The United States Geological Survey published a new report this month which estimates that the Florida Manatee (a subspecies of the West Indian manatee), which was previously thought to be endangered, will likely survive for at least another one-hundred years. Since getting support from grime artists like JME, Stormzy, AJ Tracey and hip hop mayor Akala, the site 'Grime 4 Corbyn' has emerged encouraging you to vote for our guy Jez! The website encourages people to vote in the coming General Election on June the 8th, and for those that do, you could cop a pair of tickets to a secret party in London! According to the energy minister of India, Piyush Goyal, every car sold in India will be powered by electricity by the year 2030. Officials believe that the move will lower the cost of importing fuel and running vehicles. The campaign couldn't have come at a better time, as according to a recent Greenpeace report India has become one of the most toxic countries in the world. We've all witnessed the bloodbath that is Brexit, the trauma of Trump and we have asked ourselves is this real, is this what it has come to? This is not what we asked for, this is not what we wanted. There have been over 40 strikes across London Picturehouse's in what has now become the biggest industrial action in UK cinema history. However, this time it will be us waiting for the hurricane to come! When Jeremy Corbyn becomes Prime Minister and stands victorious outside Downing Street, on June 9th he will call out the media, call out the pollsters and call out the politicians, only instead of facing this with disbelief, we will be there cheering the man along! Now time for the executive orders Jeremy, make them swift, make them sharp! Follow through on those crazy campaign promises of half a million council homes, saving the NHS, protecting the environment, making the 1% pay for the shit that needs to be paid for. Fight for the homeless, and put peace and justice at the heart of foreign policy! While we watch those that demand equality rejoice and the privileged march in the streets protesting! Ah yes, it's just like Trump, but in a good way. Corbyn is a voice for the voiceless, he threatens the system because his not just a "dreamer", as accused by some, his ideas can and will change things. The possibilities of Corbyn as Prime Minister are interesting to say the least! GOOD NEWS 4 ISSUE 99 / 2017 NEWS LONDON NEWS SUPPORT PICTUREHOUSE STAFF STRIKERS!
