FIGHT TO DEFEND PUBLIC SERVICES BEGINS!
Only a united trade union movement can resist the ConDem Governments plans to decimate Public Services.
Under the pretext of the financial crisis their plans are ideologically driven to achieve the long held aim of dismantling public welfare.
The attacks will leave milions of ordinary people losing vital services, the elderly , the vulnerable
and working class people will all be at risk , in order that the privately educated rich tories can protect their mates the bankers and in big business.
There are alternatives to the savaging of the public sector
goto www.unison.co.uk for an alternative strategy
In the meantime the fight against the cuts needs to be driven locally .
Our branch along with the local Trades Union Council has formed an anti-cuts alliance.
we have been on the streets of Bilston, Wednesfield and Wolverhampton leafletting and petitioning against cuts and have received overwhelming support from the public.
With our branch banner we also marched on the 10,000 strong demonstration in Birmingham
on Sunday 3rd October outside the Tory party Conference.
NEXT ACTION- TUESDAY 19TH OCTOBER LOBBY OF PARLIAMENT
THE BRANCH HAVE ORGANISED A COACH TO THE LOBBY
IF YOU HAVE THE DAY OFF OR CAN GET THE DAY OFF, WHY NOT COME DOWN WITH US AND LET YOUR MP KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT PROTECTING PUBLIC SERVICES ?
