May 9, 2025"The Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions (LO), the country’s largest labor federation, has voted in favor of a comprehensive boycott of #Israel, including a ban on trade and investment with #Israeli companies.
The decision was passed with an overwhelming 88 percent majority during LO’s national congress, held in the #Norwegian capital, Oslo, from May 8 to 9, the official #Palestinian news agency WAFA reported."
That union name goes hard.
In Norwegian it is known as Landsorganisasjonen i Norge, hence the abbreviation LO.
Aw. I was hoping it would be Overwhelming Majority. How cool would that be?
Oh, I see, so you misunderstood the title of the article. Honestly though that would be AWESOME for real. It would make for a good party name or something, too.
Imagine a corp negotiator being told they’d have to deal with The Overwhelming Majority. They’d be shitting their pants all the way to the meeting.
