Please distribute
This Accord has been drawn up to act as a unifying principle for 90% of the UK population, to provide an agreed direction for the emerging anti-cuts movements in a simple way that doesn't need a bureaucracy or a leadership.
Please distribute widely and advertise on your or your group's output, in order to spread the Accord.
A design for an icon or 'hallmark' for the Accord is still needed so if anyone has any ideas then please post them here.
The UK Poor 90 Accord
1.We Agree that there should be no cuts to services to pay back the debts ran up in the bailing out of the banking system.
2.We Agree that the debts should be recovered from the richest 10% of this country: they were the real winners, now they should be the real losers – and from large corporations, for the same reason.
3.We Agree that the poorest 90% must unify to force the richest 10% to pay for their crisis.
4.We Agree to look to local and physical activity to achieve our aims, communicating as real people, but we will organise online whenever possible.
5.We Agree to unify around this issue, not pursue other agendas through it, and to act effectively to further the aims of this Accord.
6.We Agree to try and expand the unity and act in the interest of the poorest 99.9% of the people on the planet.
