MAYDAY MARCH

ROTHERHAM MAYDAY MARCH SATURDAY 5th MAY!!!

After years of Mayday going unmarked in Rotherham, Rotherham Against the Cuts and the united people of Rotherham have called a Mayday March to give EVERYONE -  Workers, the unemployed, Women, the Youth, Old, Disabled - in Rotherham a chance to voice their anger!

BRING YOUR OWN BANNERS!!!

The March is open to anyone who is suffering so the Rich can get Richer!!! They had their bail-outs, bonuses and tax-breaks - and we lose our jobs, watch our wages get cut, prices go up... but it doesn't have to be this way!!!
