TUSC chair Dave Nellist was interviewed on BBC2’s Daily Politics show on 10 April by programme host Andrew Neil.

Dave said Labour, Liberal Democrats, Tories and UKIP have an “overarching agenda when it comes to austerity”.

Dave pointed out that TUSC “will be the sixth largest party when it comes to May’s council elections, and the only one with an absolute policy against austerity and against all the effects on local people’s services which austerity is bringing”. He also explained that TUSC was a project of the late Bob Crow, RMT general secretary.

TUSC already has over 500 candidates in place for May 22, including 40 members of the RMT, the former general secretary of the prison officers’ union and the union’s current assistant general secretary, and 120 members of Unite the Union.
