Widespread demonstration in London against economic austerity and anti -welfare policies

Thousands of people gathered in London today (Saturday) to convey their message to the British government by holding demonstrations against the decline in funds and reforms in the welfare system, according to ISNA.

The People’s Assembly Campaign Group announced that trade unions, social activists and political activists were present at the gathering held in central London. Jeremy Corbin and Diane Abbott, British Parliamentarians, were among the speakers in the White Hall Square.

The organizers of the demonstrations accused the government of implementing policies that put the budget cuts on the poorest segments of society.

At the beginning of the march, representatives of the National Union of Education, the Revolutionary Communist Party, the Green Party, and the Maritime and Rail Transport Union were present. The crowd of participants moved to White Hall shortly before 9pm local time.

Many protesters had placards with slogans such as “Taxes the rich, do not cut funds – prosperity, no war.” Some other placards displayed writings such as “nurses not nuclear weapons” and “war budget, not prosperity”.

A spokesman for the People’s Assembly said: “Adherence to the financial rules has caught us in the financing crisis, increased poverty, worsened mental health, and damaged public sector rights.”

She added: “Cancellation of winter aid, preserving the ceiling of children to receive the benefits of children during the conservative period, abandoning retired women, cutting down £ 5 billion by restricting access to universal disability and credit, and reducing British foreign aid from 4.9 %.

“It will be a truly difficult decision to tax a government from the Labor Party for their rich and their hidden assets to finance public services, fair wages, investing in local communities and the national health system,” he said.

“The world is involved in war,” said Jeremy Corbin, a former Labor Party leader and current independent MP. Death fields in Ukraine and Russia, intentional and heinous famine in Gaza, and continuing genocide against Palestinian people; “We definitely need a peaceful world.”

“We need a peaceful world that is achieved through the perspective of peace, disarmament, and the causes of war – the factors that have led to the despair and the wave of modern -day asylum seekers,” he continued.

Diane Abut, a representative of the Labor Party, also called the recent statements by Prime Minister Sir Karr Starmer about migration “essentially racist”, saying the government was imitating the discourse of the British Reform Party.

“I was very upset about hearing the talk of Kerry Starmer about immigration,” he said. He said he wants to close a disadvantage of politics; That is, he considered immigrants as a disgusting case. He said that the migration has caused irreparable damage to this beautiful and beautiful land, which is, of course, the migrants – the immigrants who made the country and finally said that we were in danger of becoming an island of foreigners. “In my opinion, this is an inherently racist comment.”

“My parents came to this country in the 1980s,” he said, adding that Starmer turned to imitation of the current. They were not strangers. “They contributed to the construction of the country.”

The People’s Unions, Health, Disabled, Housing and Welfare Activists, along with local organizations, chanted slogans against the government’s efforts to implement a new version of the “Economic Austerity” project.

“We are facing a growing threat from the extremist right that is fed with racism, divisions and failed policies,” the group’s spokesman added. “We need to improve people’s lives, we need to support the most vulnerable and to end the poverty of children.”
