UK trade unions support Arab uprisings

[ellenrr]

The UK trade unions have put their weights behind the campaign for rights in the Arab countries by relaying messages of solidarity to their counterparts in Bahrain.

Trade Union Congress (TUC) general secretary Brenden Barber sent a message to general secretary of General Federation of Bahrain Salman Jafar al-Mahfoodh on Sunday, voicing support for the federation's push for democracy.

A group of Middle East experts has convened in a meeting in London to pledge their support for the popular uprisings in the region, which have so far succeeded in ousting two Western-backed dictators in Egypt and Tunisia.
