The Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (TUSC) All-Britain Steering Committee is asking all TUSC groups, individual members, and affiliated organisations to organise campaigns for a local People’s Budget for their council area.
As society moves on from a Covid-crisis footing, a local People’s Budget campaign could play an important role in bringing together trade union branches, campaign groups and community organisations to fight at a council level for what communities will need in the ‘new normal’ – not the cuts to public services that Tory policies will inevitably demand.
The Organising for a People’s Budget Campaign Pack provides model material, letters of invitation and campaign tips to allow every local group or even just an individual TUSC member to get cracking.
It is available both as a PDF at https://www.tusc.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/451.pdf and in Word format (at https://www.tusc.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/452.doc) to allow adaptations to be made to fit the requirements of local campaigns.
