CND adds support to TUC march against the cuts

(03/02/11) CND has added its voice to the thousands supporting the TUC march and rally on 26 March against the government cuts."Government cuts are an £81bn assault on the welfare state. Jobs, houses and pensions are all under attack as the government slashes public services," CND chair Kate Hudson said. "Cameron and Clegg are cutting welfare but leaving big-ticket defence projects virtually untouched. "We didn't make this crisis and we don't want our money spent on weapons that can kill millions of people. "Our money must be spent on jobs, pensions, education and health – we must improve the lives of the British people without threatening the lives of others."The march will bring together trade unions, community groups, political organisations and anyone concerned about the pace and scale of government cuts.Ms Hudson said: "CND wholeheartedly supports the TUC demonstration on 26 March and urges all its members and supporters to participate."March for public services on 26 March
