National demonstration and walkout against cuts to education
After a period of political lull, students are mobilizing again for their first big action this year – a national demonstration-cum-walkout in London on November 9. The march is focused against cuts to the education sector, and is meant to involve not just students but education sector workers as well.

The NUS is not supporting this demonstration officially, which means the responsibility of organizing this demonstration is pretty much open to all concerned. Student activists themselves have expressed willingness to work with a broad cross-section of students, student representatives, activist groups and radicals to make this march a success and hopefully rejuvenate the student/anti-cuts movement.
As anarchists and radicals the struggle for non-privatized, not-for-profit education available to all is something we should be an active part of . We can do so by contributing our collective presence, in whatever way we see fit, to this event. This call-out, therefore, is for anarchists/anti-authoritarians in London to meet to decide how we can organize politically – collectively – not only for Nov 9, but also for the build up in the interim.
A venue is being booked for a meeting early next week, in the meantime, ideas and proposals for the agenda on how best we can organize can be sent to this email address: n9mobilization@gmail.com. A Facebook page will be set up once the date and venue are confirmed.

Anarchist/radical student groups who might be planning actions for the day are especially welcome, so that we can link up and co-ordinate our actions.
Please forward this to your groups and networks.
