Join the national demonstration and lobby of parliament to demand

- An end to cuts in rail jobs and services. A freeze in shareholder dividends with all profits instead invested to protect services and jobs.

- An urgent industry-wide programme so our railways can provide a green stimulus to the economy to help fight the economic downturn.

- A wholly integrated, publicly-owned and accountable People’s Railway and London Underground which put people before profit and where passengers and workers have a real voice
