Thanks very much your support is very gratefully received.

We have a

  • solidarity meeting on Weds 14th Nov 7pm at the Mechanics Institute in Manchester, and
  • demo on 24th November 1pm at Peace Gardens Manchester, and are
  • emailing [Health Secretary] Alan Johnson on johnsona@parliament.uk

If you are in a trade union it may be worth raising my case and asking for a donation to our strike fund

We would be happy to send a speaker when we start our indefinite strike from Thursday 8th.

Cheques to Manchester Community and Mental Health, c/o Union Office 70 Manchester Rd, Manchester M21 9UN

Thanks again for your support. It is this support which will keep us going

If they get away with doing this to Karen, none of us is safe unless we give up fighting to defend the NHS and fall in line with whatever the employers and the government want to do to us.

This fight needs serious money, quickly, and we should get our members interested in giving it, rather than just making donations from branch funds. We’ll be making arrangements from our branch for someone to come from Manchester to meet members, and to take people to the demo on November 24th. I strongly urge others here to do likewise.
