NEXT MEETING - WHERE NEXT IN THE WAR ON WELFARE - TUESDAY 20TH MAY, 7PM, QUAKER MEETING HOUSE, FRODSHAM ST, CHESTER

The government's cuts to welfare now amount to £23 billion a year. Millions of people have been thrust into deeper hardship while poverty porn television whips up hatred against them. Hundreds of thousands have been made penniless by sanctions, delays and ATOS. Thousands have died in the process.

Yet there have been some victories for our side. The hated ATOS have been forced to with draw from their contract assessing disabled people. The bedroom tax is on the way out. Is there a way to turn round the assault of our welfare state and come out with something better?
