This week has been budget week and what a depressing week it’s been.

What we thought was going to be 2015 – as Mr Osborne originally promisedus -; it’s now going to be 2030 before the public finances are in better shape;the disappointing news that the NHS will only get a small amount of money while Brexit is set to get £5 billion.

And what an act of self mutilation Brexit is. We have got a mess up of thenegotiations, we are seeing £700 million already being spent, £1.5 billionthis year, £1.5 billion the next and so on, let alone all the costs to jobs. TheEuropean Medicines Agency left us this week, meaning another 900 jobs aregone.

And this is just the beginning. We are in a real mess. Apart from evenstarting on universal credit, the number of people going to foodbanks hasshot right up and we have also had so many people coming to our advicesurgery, saying ‘I’m worried, I’m worried about the future, I’m worriedabout my kids.’ This is what we are looking at. Schools having to sendletters home to ask parents for donations, just so that books and pencils andpens can be purchased.

This is just not on. We have to put a stop to it. Please join us, come andcampaign for a socially just and peaceful future for our children and for us.

Come and be a part of it. We can have a better future. Poverty and inequality are not inevitable. Please come on board. Thank you.
