THIS Sunday’s supposedly non-partisan March in March rally, which is highly critical of the Abbott government, is being coordinated by people with links to ALP-affiliated unions.
March in March events are planned for cities Australia-wide and are billed by organisers as a “people’s vote of no confidence” in Abbott government policies.
Perth’s organisers include officials from the Australian Manufacturing Workers’ Union and United Voice—both formally affiliated with the ALP—and Green Left Weekly.
Issues to be highlighted at the rallies include mooted cuts to education and health, asylum seeker policy, and cuts to foreign aid. Organisers say the rallies are an opportunity for anyone with a grievance about the direction the country is heading to turn up with their placards and have their say. They are expecting 40,000 to turn out.
The March gets underway at Perth’s Langley Park at 10.30am.
