Happy International Workers Day! This May Day, we stand in #solidarity with rural worker and union activists in Colombia - where riot police, tanks and military are being deployed against activists in order to suppress protests. Last year more than 7,000 people participated in roadblocks calling for rural reform. Twenty people are believed to have died during that clash between activists and police. Each year, more union activists are killed in Colombia than in the rest of the world combined. theguardian/world/2014/apr/29/colombia-military-farmers-strike-election
