Looks great! Stuff below & full details here: http://www.boycottworkfare.org/?p=3267


Come to the Welfare Action Gathering on 15th February!



Come to an info and skill-sharing day in London on 15 February, 10.45am-5.30pm, Maiden Lane Community Centre – 20 minutes walk or a short bus ride from Kings Cross Station, off York Way (156 St. Paul’s Crescent, London, NW1 9XZ. Venue wheelchair accessible.)



Getting your welfare rights is about a lot more than just knowing your welfare rights. Across the UK, people are getting together to support each other and pushing back workfare, standing up to sanctions, wrong decisions, and insecure housing.

Meet others from across the UK, hear inspiring stories, learn info about our rights and share tactics that work. This isn’t a day for speakers from the front. Party political representatives aren’t invited. It’s about people at the grassroots getting together and working out how we can support each other and throw even more spanners in the government’s plans!

If you are in a local group where people share mutual support on welfare or housing (or plan to start one), we should be able to help with your travel costs. Please get in touch as soon as you can so we can sort it out.

Planning on coming? There’ll be tea, coffee and a free lunch! Please let us know you’re coming so we know how many people to cook for!

Want to know what to expect? Check out the agenda below. There’s an open space session in the afternoon if you’d like to offer a workshop too!

The Tories are going to be all over this one.

"Look at the lazy yobs, THEY'RE PROTESTING US MAKING THEM WORK FOR FREE? THEY CALL IT SLAVERY!!! LOOK AT ALL THE COLOREDS!!!"

(Because capital making others work for free under economic, legal or physical duress hasn't been the definition of slavery since civilization began.)
