We stand united as part of a great movement of workers.
Our diversity is our strength.
Our solidarity is our power.
We respect and take care of each other.
Prejudice and discrimination – including misogyny, racism, homophobia and all other hatreds have no place in our movement.
We rise together.
Today and every day we commit ourselves to achieving justice, fairness, equality and dignity for all workers.
Solidarity forever.
