TUC national demonstration: Step Up for Public Services - 12 May 2018

"The TUC has called a national demonstration on Saturday 12 May in London. This is going to be a key moment in the fight for public services.
We’ll show decision=makers we’re scared for the public services we love – and the public are on our side. We won’t take the cuts and pay freezes lying down.
This march is set to be a big one. UNISON, the TUC and other trade unions are putting considerable support behind it. You’ll join thousands of like-minded people under the banner, Step up for Public Services.
It’s a march with a serious message but it’ll have a fun, family-friendly feel. Dig out your UNISON colours and let’s turn the streets purple. Plus there will be activities to keep your energy bubbling throughout the day.
Make sure you’re there!
The demonstration will form part of the TUC Great Jobs Agenda campaign, which sets out the key demands of the movement for how we win a new deal for working people.
