"Their Crisis - Who Pays?" - Rally Against Cuts [2]

[Bristol] info:leftconvention | 17.06.2010 11:22

Come to a rally at College Green (outside the Council House) from 4.30pm on Tuesday 22nd June
On June 22nd there will be a budget giving more details of the government's plan for cutting the deficit. We can expect privatisation and savage cuts in jobs and services. These will have an immediate impact not only on public sector workers but on all those who depend on the services they provide. Pensions and welfare benefits will also come under attack. If there are sacrifices to be made, then let the wealthy pay, the ones who recklessly gambled and profited from the free market. This is a call for positive alternatives like investment in services, the living wage and an opportunity to rally against these damaging cuts.

Bring banners, your voices and anything else to make yourself heard!
