May Day Rally

2pm, Monday 2nd May

 
Bexley Square, Salford

May Day has been celebrated internationally by working people for over a hundred years. It is the day we celebrate the victories of the past and look forward to the challenges and opportunities of the future. Salford is currently facing massive cuts in jobs and services and the impact of these cuts will be devastating for our city. We want to mark this year's May Day - this year being the 80th Anniversary of "The Battle of Bexley Square" - with a rally to bring together Salfordians, to celebrate our city and our heritage and to stand resolutely against cuts to our jobs, services and communities.

Campaign Stalls and Union Banners Welcome

Newsletter April 2011 (No. 0)

This is the first issue of a regular newsletter from Salford Against the Cuts. It was produced as a trial run, but the meeting on Monday night felt it would be useful to make it available. Please print out as many copies as you like to distribute to friends, at work, church or in the pub. If you click on each page you should then be able to print from your browser; right-click to save a copy.

The next issue will be printed in a reasonable quantity on 9th May for our next Organising meeting. You can get copies of it from us at the meeting or print it off from this website again. If you would like to submit anything for inclusion please send it to us at salfordagainstcuts@gmail.com or Salford Against the Cuts, c/o Salford Unemployed Centre, Liverpool Road, Eccles.
