Medact Bloc @ No More Austerity 2.0 Demonstration
Saturday 7th June @ 11:30 am – 5:00 pm
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.
Together, we’re demanding welfare, not warfare – join us!
11.30am – Assemble
12pm – March!
Organised by The People’s Assembly, this national demonstration makes three main demands:
- No to Austerity 2.0 – Fund our public services.
- Tax the Rich – Empower workers, not big business.
- Welfare, not Warfare – Stop attacks on disabled people.
If 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.
Make 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!
If 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).
