You're just jealous because the Socialist Worker hasn't got a spoof site.

I really liked it that there were all kinds and ages of people there

Thought it was a good demo to get things started, like you say a good mix of people and a good atmosphere. Was also good that it was announced that Tenant's Council are backing Save our Services.

The next SOS meeting will be on 20 November, 12pm, St Matthews Tenants Hall. We also have planning meetings on the first and third Thursday of the month at 6.30pm in the Vida Walsh Centre on Windrush Square.

SOS has already had a bit of a victory in saving the jobs of the One O'Clock workers but hopefully we can carry on broadening it out and getting more people involved.
