TUC march against cuts

This Assembly:

Notes the resolve of Richard Evans (PCS), Steffan-Ap-Dafydd (NUT) and Cerith Griffiths (FBU) to walk the 156 miles from Cardiff to London to join the October 20th TUC rally;

Congratulates them in their attempt to highlight the urgent threat posed by unnecessary Westminster spending cuts of up to 40% and the damage that this will do, not only to public services in Wales but the very communities in which we live and work; and

Wishes a safe journey, both to them and the many others who will accept the challenge to march on October 20th.
