SUMMARY:Medact Bloc @ No More Austerity 2.0 Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Medact is going to the upcoming demo – No More Austerity 2.0! Amidst rising living costs and growing pressure on overstretched public services\, the Government is making sweeping cuts to welfare\, winter fuel payments\, and adult social care in order to fund increased military spending. \n\n\n\nTogether\, we’re demanding welfare\, not warfare – join us! \n\n\n\n11.30am – Assemble \n\n\n\n12pm – March! \n\n\n\nOrganised by The People’s Assembly\, this national demonstration makes three main demands: \n\n\n\n\nNo to Austerity 2.0 – Fund our public services.\n\n\n\nTax the Rich – Empower workers\, not big business.\n\n\n\nWelfare\, not Warfare – Stop attacks on disabled people.\n\n\n\n\nIf you’re new to Medact\, it’ll be a great way to meet people already involved and get connected with a campaign group. We’ll have a banner and placards\, and we’ll march together from Portland Place to Whitehall. Remember to wear sturdy shoes\, bring snacks\, water\, warm clothes\, and a fully charged phone.  \n\n\n\nMake sure you register below to get details nearer the time\, including a link to join an optional WhatsApp Group to stay in touch with the bloc on the day!  \n\n\n\nIf you want to make banners and hang out with us beforehand\, come to our banner and placard making session on Thursday 29th May\, 6–8pm in Medact’s London office (Bethnal Green). Indicate you’d like to join us for this in the form below! If you have any questions or concerns ahead of the day – you can email our Movement Organiser\, Cal – calumbarnes@medact.org.
