Action for Rail protests
RMT and the other rail unions, supported by the TUC, have launched a high profile campaign — “Action for Rail — People before profit”. They are fighting to defend rail services, safety and jobs, but there is another issue. The government’s McNulty report also proposes huge fare increases. Whether you are a rail worker or rail passenger you have a serious interest in supporting this campaign.
Brighton and Hove RMT are leading an Action for Rail protest in Norman Baker’s constituency, taking our message against the government’s rail cuts to the home of a key minister responsible.
10.30am – 12noon, Saturday 4 August
