May Day is International Workers' Day!
The Con-Dem government, that no-one voted for, continues to destroy OUR welfare state, passes laws to privatise OUR NHS, attacks working class people, caps or cuts OUR pay and conditions, cuts jobs, makes it easier for bosses to sack workers and tries to force us to pay more, work longer and get less pensions. This is justified as necessary to 'reduce the deficit' - in reality to make us all pay for the thousands of billions of pounds used to bail out the bankers. Tory ministers like to say that we are all in it together, but as last month's budget makes clear, it's cuts in tax for the rich, and cuts in everything else for us!
The unions are at the forefront of the fight to defend us from these attacks, and Plymouth TUC are proud to lead the fightback.
