Yesterday’s Demo against #Maximus was Excellent, despite the cold weather (we even had a small snow flurry) and a relatively small attendance; we had representatives from Unite Community, Student Union, Left Unity , TUSC, PCS and DEAEP along with individuals as far from Coventry and Birmingham.
Rather than go into detail about the excellent performances from Leicester’s Singers and poets, and the uplifting and/or heart rendering speeches; here’s the video of these courtesy of Tony Hamon – another of DEAEP’s Directors:
One of the most optimistic things to come from the demo was, apart from annoying someone into throwing water from a window above! Everyone there agreed, we wanted and indeed needed to, carry the momentum forward; therefore I’m pleased to say that I’ve been invited to speak for DPAC & DEAEP at Unite’s National day of action against benefit sanctions in Thursday 19th March, 12-4pm
