Special appeal: help us build the TUC demo on March 26th | CoR Newsletter 1st March

We’re going all out to promote the message of mass resistance to cuts

Resistance in USA’s Mid West – Workers in Wisconsin occupy chamber to prevent passing of anti-union legislation

All signs are that the TUC demonstration demanding an alternative to this government’s cuts agenda is going to be huge.

Hundreds of coaches and trains coming from all parts of the country are already full.

But with still just under a month to go the Coalition of Resistance is going to devote itself to making sure that this march will be one of the biggest Britain has seen.

We have produced more than 100,000 leaflets and posters advertising the demonstration. Please contact us if you want material to distribute in your area.

We are printing a 4 page broadsheet on the cuts and the resistance to them which will be distributed for free on the march. There will be thousands of placards and badges as well.

We need to raise several thousand pounds to cover the cost of this work. So we are making a special appeal for funds. Any amount will help us no matter how small.

Please either use the paypal facility on the website or send cheques made out to ‘Coalition of Resistance’ to 5 Caledonian Road, London N1 9DX.
