We are publishing below the latest briefing from 'Boycott Workfare'.
"The week of action vs. workfare has already had a big impact. With
just weeks to go until Osborne's punitive new six month scheme is due to launch,
your pressure has forced major workfare users Salvation Army and TCV to say they will have no part in this scheme.
But they're still propping up other workfare schemes and forcing people
into destitution through sanctions, so keep up the pressure with the online
actions below.
We've had surprisingly supportive coverage in the Evening Standard, and civilsociety (charities trade press) has done a great write up
too!
Take online action now:
- Join the physical or online blockade of the Salvation Army!
- Sign up to Universal Automation
- Take action from the green charities profiteering from workfare
- Keep up the pressure on the YMCA
- Subway: Traineeships are workfare
Or join one of the actions on the streets this weekend vs workfare in
Cardiff, Liverpool, Brighton, Edinburgh, Swansea or London (or there may be a Bedroom Tax demo planned near you
too)!
