Mass lobby of Lambeth Council 7 February
Anti-cuts campaigners call for mass lobby of Lambeth Council over £37 Million cuts package
A packed planning meeting of local anti-cuts campaigners tonight called upon the people of Lambeth to rally at the Town Hall on Monday evening, 7 February, as the Council considers a £37 Million package of cuts which will cost 600 jobs, including all School Crossing Patrol staff and all Parks Rangers.
“Local people must demand that this Labour Council does not make these cuts,” said local resident Andy Tullis, “we need to be there on Monday night to make sure our views are heard.”
Representatives of local trade unions, pensioners and tenants were joined at the meeting by students and anti-cuts protesters from UK Uncut. Organisers are predicting a large turnout at the lobby of the Council on Monday night.
