Demo: End Austerity Now

Dear Colleagues,

The proposed Tory anti-union laws would outlaw strikes if less than 50% of members voted in a ballot with an even stricter threshold for workers in ‘essential’ services. If these laws come in unchallenged, bosses will ride roughshod over all our workplace agreements and victimise our union reps.

It is now vital we mobilise on the streets for 20th June demo outside the Bank of England (Queen Victoria St) City of London (nearest tube: Bank) and show the full force of anti-austerity opinion by ensuring this demonstration is the biggest protest seen in London for years.

On June 11th LUL stated that they want a wage settlement, including Night Tube, which is “affordable, fair and sustainable.” This is a change from early April when they said they wanted a settlement which was “affordable, sustainable and fair.” So in all this time the only real change to the offer from LUL has been in the order of the words.
