Following our public meeting to discuss how councils can resist austerity and Leeds City Council’s 2019-20 budget, which includes adding £4.5 million to its general reserves, Leeds TUC will be organising a lobby of Leeds City Council’s budget setting meeting on 27th February to promote these proposals.
We will be focussing on two points in particular:
* Support for Leeds Unison’s campaign to see outsourced workers paid at least the same minimum wage that Leeds City Council is paying its in-house workforce.
* Opposing the plans to increase rents in PFI council properties by an inflation-busting 3.4%
The full alternative proposals can be found on our website – https://leedstuc.wordpress.com/2019/02/16/leeds-tuc-to-lobby-councillors-for-alternative-budget-proposals/
