Europe demands! WELFARE NOT WARFARE‼️

On Saturday 24 October at 2pm European activists are joining leading UK figures to bring eyewitness accounts of a growing revolt to Bristol.

Action is spreading across Europe. Belgian students have followed their French counterparts into the streets over the state of schools and universities, Spanish housing protests have caused a political crisis and have sparked similar action in Portugal. Links are increasingly being made between these austerity measures and military spending.

Dockers are preparing an international strike against arming Israel on 30 October and students are preparing a global day of action against conscription on 20 November.

Come and hear from those on the ground and discuss how to build the welfare not warfare movement in Britain. The time is now!

Speakers include:
Jérôme Legavre, French MP, LFI
Peter Mertens, Belgian Workers’ Party
Yasmine Adam, MAB
Narzanin Massoumi, British Iranian academic

We’ve seen huge protests in Europe in recent weeks over welfare issues. In France against a crumbling education system, in Spain against a housing crisis and in Germany against military conscription.

All of this has come to a head as governments right across Europe - including the UK - are directing billions of public money towards rearmament and the drive towards never ending war.

Over 60 countries joined the Global day of action for Palestine on Saturday 10 October 🇵🇸

The need to build international solidarity against the genocide in Palestine, militarism and rearmament and to demand public money for public services and the priority of our societies welfare, has never been more crucial.

Join us for this vital discussion and help us to build the movement against war! ✊

No to War❗️
Welfare not Warfare❗️
Wages not Weapons❗️
