Coalition of Resistance Spring tour

Coalition of Resistance Spring tour It seems the government couldn't be happier right now. There's been  a slow down in the pensions dispute and Miliband / Balls have  declared that they wont reverse any spending cut or oppose a public  sector pay freeze (see article by Lindsey German here) which has led  to a hike in the polls for the Tories. However the massive anger from millions of people we saw last year has not gone away! The 500,000 that demonstrated on March 26th or the million plus that went on strike in November still wan't to see the  back of this government. The unions who rejected the governments offer over pensions are set to meet to discuss further action. Our job is to get the movement back  on the streets. This is why Coalition of Resistance is planning a national speaking tour,  to discuss these issues and to draw new layers of activists into the  movement. The tour will run through February - March. We are currently working with a number of anti-cuts groups and Trades Councils to get more of these  meetings set up across the country.
