Some of our colleagues and comrades in other unions are holding an anti-austerity demonstration in Southampton on 26 January.  We encourage anyone interested in these issues to attend and show support for our sister unions.  Details follow below:

Following an initiative from RMT Southampton Shipping branch and a successful meeting of over 70 various activists bringing together many groups around the Hampshire, Sussex and Dorset areas, a demonstration will be taking place this Saturday 26th Jan starting at MIDDAY.

Please make an effort to attend this demonstration. It can be used to highlight the McNaulty campaign, the Condor shipping campaign or any other campaign fighting against austerity and decimation of workers pay and conditions.

Bring your banners and placards.

Congregate in front of Southampton Guildhall. Each organisation is encouraged to inform the public about why they are against the cuts, more information can be found at this site:
