Last night thirty local activists met in Plymouth to plan the fight against the coalition's ideological cuts agenda.
Since its formation in October 2010, the Plymouth Fightback, working with the national Right to Work Campaign, has already held sixteen public events and meetings in the city. So far this campaign has been led by Plymouth Trades Council, who have worked tirelessly in mobilising support.
Last night Tony Staunton, secretary of Plymouth TUC, called for co-ordinated action of all concerned groups within the city. "The public are being bombarded, bombarded, bombarded, by the government's propaganda. Every media story about the cuts talks of 'belt tightening' and how the previous government spent too much. Our message needs to be stronger than theirs."
