Our purpose

Greece is at the cutting edge of the austerity measures that are being introduced across Europe. All the evidence shows that while these measures may protect the interests of the rich, they just make matters worse for the majority of the population.

What happens in Greece today will be repeated in Portugal tomorrow, and in Ireland and Italy the day after. In Britain, the Coalition government is pursuing similar measures which will see workers’ earnings cut, working longer for a smaller pension, the marketisation of education and the dismantling of the NHS along with other public services.
The Greek people have shown mass resistance to these outrages and we commit to build a movement of solidarity with them.
