All unions, political organisations, activists and community organisations are welcome to attend.
The People’s Assembly Against Austerity was launched in June
2012, in London. It was a call to all those millions of people in Britain
facing an impoverished and uncertain future with wages, jobs, conditions and
welfare provision under renewed attack by the UK government.
The People’s Assembly is now being launched in Scotland to
bring together trade unionists and campaigns against cuts and privatisation, in
a movement for social justice. The People’s Assembly in Scotland aims to develop a strategy for resistance to
mobilise people against the coalition government.
The launch will be chaired by Phil McGarry, RMT Political Officer
