Indymedia York

Norwich Union have just announced a swathe of job cuts incluing 450 in York.

This'll have a huge impact locally, and follows on from major job losses at Nestle, British Sugar, and Fastline (one of the out-sourced rail depots).

Local Trade Unionists are discussing possible courses of action and perhaps the need for a broader campaign (through Trades Council?) over the big picture - will try to keep IndyMedia updated.

Also just to mention national campaigns gearing up in defence of our publicly-funded NHS and for Fair Pensions For All - again more details soon.
