The TUC march in London reflected the breadth of the movement against the Tories. The right wing love to tell us that trade unions are irrelevant and have no power. But they were out in force on the vibrant march through the capital last Saturday.
Some 27 different trade unions were represented on the demo. There were 738 banners—504 of them from trade unions. Some 152 of these were from Unison. A further 56 were from the NUT and 46 from the PCS. Unite members brought 42 banners and the UCU brought 40.
The Labour Party brought 47 banners. Trades councils brought 28 banners. There were feeder marches representing south London, education and the Campaign Against Climate Change. Here’s the full list of banners Socialist Worker spotted on the march.
