Gate Crash! the Tory Party conference

Next Sunday is an opportunity to take our message to those who are responsible for the crisis. This demo will be the starter pistol for the fight back against the Con-Dem government who wish to make us pay for their mess. The local Tory run council has colluded with the police to stop the march passing the conference centre. This ‘ban’ goes against a previous arrangement made by the organisers and the Police.

Despite protests from dozens of MPs, trade union leaders, the Birmingham council Labour group, celebrities and hundreds of others the police would not yield on allowing the demonstration to pass the conference centre.

In addition Birmingham council which has threatened to sack 26,000 of its workers unless they accept pay cuts.
