The People's Assembly will be holding a major conference and a national demonstration at Theresa May's first Tory Party Conference as Prime Minister. These events will take place over 1st and 2nd October demanding an alternative to 'Austerity Britain'.
Saturday 1 October: The People's Conference: Our Alternative To Austerity
@ Birmingham Town Hall >> Register your place
Sunday 2 October: National Demonstration: Tories Out - Austerity Has Failed
@ Victoria Square, Birmingham >> Please invite and share on Facebook
We face insecure employment, low pay, and a drive to privatise our public services. There’s a growing housing crisis, our NHS is going through the biggest funding squeeze since it’s foundation, and our Education system is over-stretched. Local services have been shut down as huge budget cuts are forced on councils.
Big business, corporations and the richest are squireling away money in offshore tax havens, awarding themselves bonuses, while immigrants are blamed for problems they had no hand in creating. And everyone else is told to tighten their belts.
Austerity has clearly failed the majority but what is the alternative? At the conference we will explore and discuss how it's possible to achieve a society where everyone has secure housing, jobs and decent education. It will counter the lies that will come out of the Tory Conference over the following days, and will propose a series of actions over the coming weeks and months that can create a movement that stops austerity in it's tracks. The demonstration will be a visible display of mass opposition and intervene in the mainstream debate when all we'll hear in the media is the austerity obsessed narrative coming out of their conference.
See you in Birmingham!
