Boycott Workfare

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Boycott Workfare is a British campaign group that has opposed "workfare" policies in the United Kingdom. The group's campaigning has been successful in making several companies and charities pull out of "workfare" because of negative PR, and it is possibly responsible for HMV entering receivership as this occurred after several months of protests and boycotting of the chain. ^{[citation needed]}
