The date for the parliamentary vote on fee increases has been announced!
9 DECEMBER 2010
We all need to start mobilizing, organizing, publicizing... the works! Talk to your student unions, guilds, societies so you can come on a coach down to London and make some noise at Parliament!
They wanted big society? They'll see big society!
Please read the building plan that we have agreed at the London Student Assembly on 2 December http://anticuts.com/2010/12/03/london-releases-battle-plan/
Bring your friends, family, lovers, brothers, carers.
Bring your nan and your neighbours, bring noise and creativity!
Let us know if you need help organising people to come down (or up) to London. if you want to come down the night before then let us know so that we can arrange sleeping accomodation at one of the many university occupations that are happening.
No fees, no cuts!
