The workers at Glasgow Film Theatre (GFT) just made history—Coca-Cola is OUT! 🚨 Staff at the iconic cinema refused to serve Coke due to its links with Israel, and guess what? They won. 🏆

🍿 What Happened?

🎥 Staff at GFT, backed by Unite Hospitality, launched a boycott against Coca-Cola, refusing to handle or sell its products. Their demand? Drop brands linked to Israel and align with the BDS (Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions) movement.

📢 The pressure worked! GFT agreed to stop buying Coca-Cola and will permanently switch to an ethically sourced alternative once the festival ends. No more money for Coke! 💸🚫

💥 Why It Matters

This isn’t just about one cinema. This is a HUGE win for worker-led activism and proves that boycotts work. ✊🔥

📍 Key takeaways:
Workers took a stand—and won!
A major venue is dropping Coca-Cola due to its ties to Israel.
Other venues are now under pressure to do the same!

🚀 What’s Next?

💡 GFT is now considering a full BDS policy—meaning more brands could be next. 👀

🔊 Your move, other cinemas, restaurants, and venues! If GFT can do it, so can you.
