MYTH: "There’s nothing we can do about the cuts, it’s all been decided."

FACT:
It’s true! Decisions have been made, budgets are being set... but there’s nothing we can do ....?

Greetings Citizens!

The decision to use cuts to “solve” our economic problems was made without consulting us and without an overview or understanding of its impact on most people.  It was made by a small group of MPs, at least 19 of whom are millionaires with no idea what it is like to rely on public services.  They and their families will benefit more from companies’ making even bigger profits (getting even bigger dividends from their shares) than from any improvements or investment in public services.

It has been decided, but it is an unjust decision.

Any decision can be “undecided” at any time and we can make that happen. 
It may not be as easy for us and they won’t let us know when we are winning, but we can decide to get that decision changed.  The sooner we make that decision the better.

So now it’s our turn to make a decision:
·       We decide that these cuts are unjust.
·       We decide to fight the cuts until they are stopped.
·       And we decide to refuse to believe anyone who tells us that there is nothing we can do.

ΩΩΩΩΩΩ     Over and out!     ΩΩΩΩΩΩ
