�How much more hardship does the government want us to suffer? Pensioners choosing between eating and heating. Children hungry at

school. Workers facing redundancy and job insecurity. Pay falling way

behind rocketing bills.

�But it’s still bonus time for bankers. Big companies still dodge

billions of pounds tax. The gulf between the super-rich and the rest of

us has never been wider.

�The government and their supporters running the county council

want even more cuts. They want their business friends to run vital

public services for profit, including the NHS. Job, pay and service

cuts will follow.

�What’s the alternative? Labour councils have been swinging the axe too while UKIP are

saying they would be prepared to enter a coalition with the Tories.

�Sheffield’s Labour council is closing family centres, libraries, youth services and the Don

Valley stadium. Where will a future Jessica Ennis train? Labour-run Nottingham City has cut day

centres for the elderly and children’s services. Labour in Derby City is carrying out the worst

attack on housing support in the country. Being prepared to join the butchers in this government in a coalition spells out

clearly that UKIP are no real alternative - just another party of big business.

�TUSC councillors would oppose all cuts. Clay Cross Council defied the Tory government 40 years ago, refusing to

increase rents. Socialist councillors with the same fighting spirit are what we need today.

�TUSC councillors will propose a budget based on what is needed to provide and maintain proper services. We would

help build united campaigns across local communities and trade unions to force the government to give the council

enough money for the services we need.

�We are fighting for a democratic socialist world to meet the needs of the millions, not the millionaires.

The Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition has the backing of the RMT transport union, leading trade unionists, the Socialist Party and other campaigners. We are standing in these elections to give an alternative to all the other parties that support this rotten capitalist system.

REFUSE TO MAKE CUTS!

By voting for cuts in our

services, Labour

councillors are making

ordinary people pay for

the bankers’ crisis.

We’re not to blame!

We’re not going to pay!
