THE Tory government is not fit to govern, thousands of activists declared at a unifying protest in central London yesterday.
Protesters from a wide range of groups including Stand Up To Racism, the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), Stop the War Coalition, Kill the Bill, Extinction Rebellion and Black Lives Matter, as well as unions Unite and the CWU, participated in the mass action organised by the People’s Assembly Against Austerity.
Speakers condemned the Tory government’s failures as the action began at BBC Broadcasting House before marchers set off for Parliament Square via Downing Street.
