Jo Mackwell has left a new comment on your post "Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC)": I wanted to find a way that those unable to march or protest in other ways could make their voices heard so I started a thread on BBC OUCH called " my story " the idea being that people speak for themselves about how policies of the last and the present governments have and may effect them.Not all of us can march etc but most of s can make our voices heard given a place to do so.Here's the link.

The Housing Emergency Coalition against the Housing Benefit cap and social cleansing start to demonstrate outside Downing Street at about 1.00, 15th December. They want activists to take sleeping bags and cardboard boxes emblazoned with Housing Emergency on them as props to show the consequences of the coalition’s plans.
ReplyDeleteAfter this disabled people will move on to the Trafalgar Square xmas tree, at about 3, for some nativity themed photo ops. We will be visited by Jo and Mary and their lovely donkey. We will meet them with placards carrying our borough names and turn them away.
Other ideas greatly appreciated. Offers of help greatly appreciated. Activists coming to the action loved and greatly adored. (especially in this weather).
