Cut My Pay - No Way! NHS Day of Protest - 18 July 2008

Unite members across the country took part in a day of protest against the NHS pay offer on the 18th July 2008. Workers campaigned around the slogan – ‘Cut my pay - No way!’.

We had a protest outside Broadgreen Hospital in Liverpool, perhaps we weren't photogenic enough to make the photo gallery!

It's quite simply wrong for public sector workers to take the brunt of the latest recession, when we haven't caused it. Its enough to make people question the point of having a Labour Government, as they have done in Scotland and now most recently in Glasgow East.

The problem we have in England though is that in he absence of a left wing pole of attraction, oppossition to the Labour Government is principally aiding right wing parties. Surely something for those of us on the left to think seriously about
