TUC March For The Alternative

The coalition's cuts to vital public services are not inevitable – they are a political choice, and they’re the wrong choice for the economy.

That's the message UNISON will be putting forward when we March For Public Services on 26 March

Alongside other trade unions, community groups and services users on a TUC organised national demonstration in London, UNISON will be spreading this message as widely as possible.

When times are tough, people need good local services more than ever: they help support communities; help people back into work; help give our children the best start in life; help care for our sick and elderly.

And by putting money into local services, we help to kick-start economic growth and recover from the recession caused by irresponsible banks.

There is an alternative: (Click here to read UNISON's Alternative Budget)

• fair taxation
• investment in our local communities, health and education
• a more equal and just society

This is the message UNISON is determined to get out to wider public and to our own members – and this is why we need as many people as possible marching in March.
