Barking and Dagenham Against the Cuts Public Meeting on Benefit Justice – and call out for anyone interested in starting a Barking DPAC
The meeting will be in the Doghouse (ground floor, disabled toilet) at the Spotted Dog (by Barking tube) at 7.30 pm on Wednesday, 17 April. (Leaflets to follow).
George Barrett who is an independent Councillor in Barking and Dagenham and a founder signatory of the national Councillors against the Cuts campaign explains that Barking and Dagenham against the Cuts are currently leafleting the local jobcentre on workfare, and regard the recent Welfare Reform legislation, (especially the bedrooom tax) as being particularly important campaigns. Further to this, they are exploring the feasibility of setting up a local claimants union, liaising with the Newham Claimants Union who will hopefully be there to explain how their group runs at the meeting on 17th. There is a website bdagainstthecuts.wordpress which carries details of meetings and articles.
George says they welcome anyone who wants to fight to their monthly meetings at the Spotted Dog, at the start of every month and he also hopes to support local disabled people to set up their own local DPAC group.
