Claimants Feeder March - 30th June

bristol | anti-cuts | press release Saturday June 18, 2011 13:57 by stand up for your rights!

 David Cameron believes he can get away with not only cutting our benefits, support and services but also for blaming the disabled, retired and out of work for the mess his rich mates have made of the economy, its time we showed him he's wrong!

On Thursday June 30th over a million workers in public services will be striking in protest at the harsh and unnecessary cuts the Con-Dem politicians are making. In Bristol hundreds of people will be marching to make their discontent heard! We won't put up with being labeled as scroungers, pushed into poverty or being forced into slave labour 'workfare' schemes.

Join us at Kings Square where benefit claimants and supporters can join together to make our voices heard and link up with those who provide the services we use - its only together we will win.
