Oct 20 Anti-Cuts Demo - Spread the Word!






An investigation by the Govt Public Accounts Committee calculated there is £25 BILLION in un-paid corporate tax, in addition to avoidance of income-tax etc by the super-rich, and this, on its own, is already bigger than the entire UK budget deficit for 2002.

Their report totally vindicates UK Uncut, Occupy and all Anti-Cuts protests, and in terms of the protest movement linking with and integrating into mass culture, the most important lesson for activists is that there is outrage about this issue "from across the political spectrum", with even right-wing newspapers like The Daily Telegraph finally admitting that "Conservatives should support left-wing campaign groups when they're in the right" -

Oh no! this awful. I'd really love to come along to this protest, but I'm already committed to attending the TUC demo on the same day. It's a pity, but I suppose there will be far more people on the TUC one.
