fat cat government to unleash their

brutal cuts offensive. Unison has


already named September 9th and
10th as the next two strike days.
We welcome this and call on all unions
in the public and private sector to
meet together asap after July 10th to
ensure that the momentum is
maintained into the autumn and
beyond. We want to keep up the
pressure on the union leaders so the
NSSN will be lobbying the TUC
and
solidarity
to these
workers. But
we also debated how
to keep the strike going and avoid
what happened after the N30 2011
pensions strike. After 2 million workers
took action together, the TUC and
conservative union leaders signed up
to the governments deal. That step
totally demobilised the mass
movement and only emboldened this

The ght against
the ConDem
austerity offensive is
back on! Todays strike
sees up to 1 million council and
school workers, teachers, civil
servants and others resisting the
continuing public sector pay freeze.
As PCS President Janice Godrich told
last Saturdays NSSN Conference, one
of her unions members explained why
they were going on strike, Because
there's too much month left at the end
of the money!
Alongside them are re-ghters who
are defending their hard won pension
rights who are also walking out.
Workers from Unison, PCS, Unite,
GMB, NUT, FBU and NIPSA will be on
strike together. Transport for London
workers as well as power control
operators on London Underground are
also out on strike today, meaning that
RMT and TSSA can be added to the
list.
At our 8th annual conference last
Saturday, the NSSN gave full support

Congress in Liverpool on September
7th, just 2 days before the next
scheduled strikes.
As the tube strike in London has
shown this year, when the unions take
decisive action they can win huge
public support and actually mobilise
millions around them who are
suffering from the ConDem cuts.
Food banks are sprouting up
everywhere and more and more are
going to the modern day loan sharks,
the pay-day loan companies.
Today will shake this fat cat
government but if it is continued into
the autumn and beyond and
particularly if it reaches out to the
millions in the private sector being
hammered by the bosses in would
amount to a 24 hour general strike,
Cameron and Co. can be defeated.
