hello,
5 December 2012 at 3:12pmLooks like a good list of speakers. Would be good if it included some more grassroots groups. Like the group that are occupying a library in friern barnet. they are fighting the cuts in Barnet-where the council are selling 70% of the public services. It has had local, national and international press and has alot of support. Links with protests like this really help those on the ground.
