CW: Nottingham May Day march
Out by the Central Library listening to May Day March speeches.
Lots of Palestine flags, Nottingham Against Transphobia, banners from Unison, Royal College of Nursing. Also Stand Up to Racism, who in my book are still questionable due to their links with the SWP.
Apparently there's some current strike action about back pay for health workers, I only got the gist of it.
Also heard from Save Our Services, and just now it was Shuguftah Quddoos speaking on behalf of the Green Party. Last I heard, Shuguftah was Labour, but apparently not any more!

To Fight the #Trump / #Musk Purge, #FederalWorkers Hold Nationwide #DayOfAction to '#SaveOurServices'
#DemocracyNow, February 19, 2025
"Today federal workers nationwide are calling for support for a 'Save Our Services Day of Action' mobilizing nationwide in opposition to #Elon Musk’s efforts to dismantle government agencies through the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, or #DOGE. Workers plan to protest outside of #FederalBuildings and #TeslaDealerships to show support for the work of federal agencies. 'It’s not just about federal workers,' says Eric Blanc, author and assistant professor of labor studies at Rutgers University. 'If they take out the federal #unions, that’s our best block right now against Trump’s authoritarian power grab.' This comes as Musk has gained access to the sensitive information of millions of Americans, all the while laying off government workers en masse. The layoffs have affected the #FAA, #NIH, #IRS and more."
