Brighton anti-cuts day school

The Brighton Stop the Cuts Coalition has organised a day school this Saturday 9th April and they very much encourage activists from across the South East to come along.

There will be sessions and a wide range of speakers from Unions (including Alex Gordon RMT president), South East Region TUC , Defend Council Housing, Anti-Cuts Economists, Keep Our NHS Public, Anti-Academies Alliance and much more! There will be lots of time for discussion and debate on how we take the anti-cuts movement forward.

It is free and open to all. So come along and please take the time to forward this email on to others who may be interested. We are keen to have activists from across the South East come along so pass the message far and wide.

People can arrive from 10am with a view to starting at 10:45am, we should finish by 4:30pm and have a bit of entertainment to finish.Its at Falmer House, Sussex University which is a few minutes from Falmer Train Station. Any questions or ideas let Phil Clarke know on BrightonTradesCouncil@Gmail.com.

Trades Councils in the Community

Your union branch speaks up for your members and potentialmembers in the workplace. Whether it’s pay, rights at work, healthand safety or lifelong learning, your branch exists to get a better dealfor your members.

Unions also need to raise their voice in the world beyond the workplace when:
• the public services delivered and used by union members come under threat
• racists and fascists try to divide local communities
• local authorities seek to reduce democratic control of education or housing.

That’s where your local trades union council comes in. Trades councils bringtogether local union branches to campaign across a community on issuesthat matter to working people.

Facing closure?: Your trades council can provide practical support and solidarity.
Tackling racism? Your trades council can help unite local people against the haters.
Privatisation problems? Your trades council can help campaign for public ownership and democratic control.

Eastbourne Trades Council represents workers in public and private sector employment across the Borough of Eastbourne and the parish of Willingdon and Jevington.
