The Cost Of Living Crisis Campaign (COLCC) is calling on everyone to support this weekends rally and march, organised by Derry Trades Union Council.
People are urged to join the rally this Saturday, February 25 at 12:30pm in Guildhall Square, for the Derry Trades Union Council rally.
The public are encouraged to bring whistles, drums and guitars, pots and pans to “make some noise”.
In a statement COLCC: “As Martin Luther King Jr. once said: ‘The time is always right to do what is right’.
“The Union movement has been leading the charge in fighting corporate greed and we need every able-bodied person to step forward and join the fight!
“Due to her battle against cancer, COLCC spokesperson, Ellen Moore, knows the importance of this campaign all too well.
“But, as she says: ‘I feel like I have to fight back against all this poverty. Even when I’m tired, or sick, or sore. I think I have to fight back because there are so many people who aren’t doing anything yet. I think I’ll to help to hold the line until everyone else stands up to help. But, I might still keep going then too.’
“Ellen’s words are a reminder that we all have a part to play in creating a better future for ourselves and our community.
“High living costs are making it difficult for our people to make ends meet, our healthcare system is under threat, and workers are fighting for their rights. But we cannot let these challenges demoralise us!
“Join us this Saturday, and let’s rally together under one common cause. The working class community is strong, we are united, and we will make a real difference!
“Don’t miss this chance to join the fight for a better future for us all. See you at the rally!”
