Fair deal for John Lewis cleaners
Dear Mr Mayfield,
Please correct the deep injustice to the cleaners working for John Lewis Partnership by making them members of the Partnership, and thus eligible for a share in the annual bonus scheme and other benefits of employment by John Lewis.

Why is this important?
Cleaners are as integral to the team as shop assistants, managers, and directors. Outsourcing the cleaning services is demeaning, discriminatory and clearly counter to your founder's vision. We are grateful to Polly Toynbee for alerting us to the situation in a recent Guardian article. For some of us, it is so unjust and morally repugnant that we intend to boycott John Lewis, Waitrose and Greenbee until this injustice is put right - and encourage others to do likewise.
