Anti-austerity protest ignored by UK media       printable version
25 Jun 2014: posted by the editor - United Kingdom

The People’s Assembly Against Austerity organised a mass march and rally which began outside the BBC buildings in Great Portland Street to protest the Corporation's silence on previous huge demonstrations including the NHS event at the Tory Conference in September last year which drew similar numbers to Saturday’s event. 

At a rally in Parliament Square following the march, comedian and activist Russell Brand told the crowd: "The people of this building generally speaking do not represent us, they represent their friends in big business. It’s time for us to take back our power. The revolution that’s required isn’t a revolution of radical ideas, but the implementation of ideas we already have."

The comedian added: "When an anti-austerity march starting from the steps of the BBC fails to make the news, something is rotten in the UK." He added: "That’s to be expected, as people would surely rise up if they saw just how exploited they are."

Sarah Hemingway, Chair of Hull People’s Assembly said: "It is essential for the welfare of millions of people that we stop austerity and halt this coalition government dead in its tracks before it does lasting damage to people’s lives and our public services. Cuts are killing people and destroying cherished public services which have served generations. Our country is the seventh richest nation on the planet. It does not have to be this way. Why should the majority of us pay for the wreckage in our economy caused by an elite few with no consequences to them?"

Speakers included journalist Owen Jones who claimed: "The Tories are using the crisis to push policies they have always supported. For example, the sell-off of the NHS They have built a country in which most people who are in poverty are also in work."
