Demonstrate 19/03/2015 vs benefit sanctions
From Unite the Union Community Section
National day of action - 19 March 2015
More and more people are facing benefit sanctions. Ove
r 2 million people have had their money stopped in the past 2 years.
That’s 2 million people, many of whom have been plunged into poverty, unable to heat their homes or even eat. How is this meant to help prepare people for work?

Benefit sanctions must be fought against
These sanctions are cruel and handed out for ridiculous reasons such as:
- Arriving minutes late to a meeting
- Not applying for jobs when waiting to start a new job!
- Missing an appointment on the day of the funeral of a close family member.
Up and down the country on Thursday 19 March we will be protesting against the cruel use of sanctions.
FOUR ways to get involved
- Join an event near you on Thursday 19 March to stop benefit sanctions in your community.
- Sign our petition calling on the government to stop using sanctions.
- Share your story – we are looking for people who have been sanctioned to tell their story.
- We want to show the reality and impact on people’s lives - show your support - share on Twitter and Facebook #No2Sanctions Like us on Facebook.
Kilburn Unemployed Workers Group will be at Willesden Jobcentre, Chancel House, Neasden Lane, Neasden, NW10 2XH, 12 Noon till 2pm. See postcode map.
