College Green
They say cut back, we say FIGHT BACK!
We could afford a £1.3 trillion bailout of banks, from which the UK holds £850 billion in assets. We can afford an expensive war but we are going to take EMA from college children!
These cuts are not inevitable, they are ideological!
These cuts are an attack on our public services, communities and our children's futures. This is the real VIOLENCE!
Resistance is not futile, it's essential!
Assemble on College Green at 11.30 THIS SUNDAY for a third day of action and lets make some noise!
No to education cuts and fees!
No to ALL public service, jobs and benefit cuts!
No to the abolition of EMA!
No to tax dodging businesses and banks!
Hope to see you there, invite as many people as you can to raise awareness.
Professor/author Ira Shor--a key thinker and doer of engaged pedagogy within the school system & student-empowered learning--has sent Leeds occupation a message of solidarity:
ReplyDelete"Bravo! Keep fighting back against the disastrous policies of cutting budgets and raising costs. Education must be defended as a democratic right for the majority and stopped as privilege for an elite.
