This was in the "Newham Recorder" letters page this week.
"Dear Editor
I am
writing to invite Newham Residents to the inaugural meeting of a new
campaigning organisation for our Borough, “Newham United Against Austerity”.
We have a special guest speaker for our launch, John McDonnell MP, the
Labour Shadow Chancellor.
The event is free and open to all Newham residents
and workers. It is the start of a joint trade union and community based
campaign against the Government's attempt to starve Newham’s public services of
funds and impose Austerity upon us.
The meeting will take place 2-4pm, Saturday
30 January 2016, University East London, Stratford Campus, Main lecture theatre Water
Lane Stratford E15 4LZ.
Our MP Lyn Brown will be there and
the other speakers will be Kevin Courtney, the Deputy General Secretary of the
National Union of Teachers, Custom House Councillor, Rokhsana Fiaz and Yvonne
Green, the Greater London Convenor for the public service union
Unison. There are no tickets so please turn up promptly.
If you want any further information
please contact our secretary petersmith@newhamteachers.org.uk
Yours faithfully
John Gray
NUAA Steering Committee
