No to a Bosses Europe!
Euro Protest Cardiff June 13
The next stage in the process towards a single European currency is the Summit meeting to be hosted by the British government in Cardiff on June 15 and 16.
A Committee has been formed in Cardiff to organise a major counter-demonstration on Saturday June 13, on a broad platform of Internationalist opposition to the European austerity programme.
The Euro Summit Demonstration Committee is already backed by a wide range of organisations on the left of the Welsh labour movement, and is seeking wider support and sponsorship from the British and European labour movement.
Make sure your union branch, Labour Party or anti-cuts campaign lends its backing to the march and sends a delegation.

For a People’s Europe —Defend the Welfare State! The convergence criteria for monetary union demand that all EU governments must cut public spending. A single currency must not be created at our expense!
For Full Employment — with Secure Jobs on Decent Wages! "Labour flexibility" is the buzzword of the moment and supposedly the cure for all economic ills. In reality it means an increase in low-paid work and permanent jobs being replaced by temporary contracts and unemployment.
For National and Regional Equality across Europe! Implementation of the Maastricht Treaty is leading to a concentration of wealth and power in the richer regions of Europe. Poor regions and nations like Wales are being left behind.
For a Green Europe in a Green World! The countries of Europe and beyond share common rivers, seas and air. Pollution knows no frontiers. But the governments of Western Europe and North America have failed to act decisively to tackle CO2 emissions, industrial pollution and nuclear waste.
Against Racism and Social Exclusion! Racism and intolerance are on the rise across Europe as black people and other minorities are made scapegoats for the economic crisis.
