Dear Delegates and Branch Secretaries,

At Leeds TUC we are excited and enthused about the launch of TOGETHER to unite everyone to face down the threat we are facing from the growth of the far right.

Our unions are nearly all signed up nationally along with political groups, pop stars and celebrities and lots of anti racist organisations.
In Leeds we saw the importance of bringing together a breadth of groups for our uplifting unity demo on October 11th and so we are building on that unity again now.

There will be a Leeds TOGETHER organising meeting 6.30pm at the Civic Hall this coming Tuesday 3rd February. Please come along and get your trade union branch involved.

I hope to see you there.
Together we can win!

Jane Aitchison
President Leeds TUC
