"There will be a lobby of The ICTU Special Delegate Conference on Pay on Wednesday 26th March starting at 10.00am outside Liberty Hall. All the officials from the national union head offices and Delegates from around the country will be present. Could you manage to get there to leaflet delegates from 10am on, the conference starts at 10.30am."

Come along and make that point to them.

O bella ciao - Lyrics

Una mattina mi son svegliato...
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
Una mattina mi son svegliato ed'ho trovato l'invasor

O partigiano, portami via..
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
o partigiano portami via, che mi sento di morir

E se io muoio da partigiano..
o bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
e se io muoio da partigiano, tu mi devi seppelir

E seppellire lassù in montagna..
o bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
e seppellire lassù in montagna, sotto l'ombra di un bel fior

E le genti, che passeranno..
o bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
e le genti, che passeranno diranno "o che bel fior"!

E questo è il fiore, del partigiano..
o bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
e questo è il fiore, del partigiano, morto per la Libertà!

E questo è il fiore...del partigiano...morto per la Libertà!
