Brent People's Assembly - Give Our Kids A Chance

With the economy in the doldrums, public sector redundancies, wage cuts affecting many residents and the housing benefit cap hitting families soon, it is imperative that we work together to defend out living conditions, our schools and our health service.  At the same time the cut in council funding has meant that we face closures of libraries and reductions in street sweeping and school crossing patrols. The People's Assembly is sub-titled 'Give Our Kids A Chance. Defending Our Jobs and Services'.

Brent Fightback, the local anti-cuts movement, is inviting campaigns, trade unions, voluntary organisations and community groups to a Brent People's Assembly on Saturday 12th November at Harlesden Methodist Church. The aim is to give local people a voice so that they can say how the cuts and increased charges are affecting them. We will be sharing information and ideas on how we can join together more effectively and ensure that everyone has a decent standard of living and our children have a future.
