Unison Joins Southend Protest

On Tuesday 3rd Sept Southend Unison members joined the local protest against Boris Johnson’s decision to deny MPs a final vote on a Brexit deal (or lack of a deal) by proroguing Parliament.

This is an undemocratic move to force through Johnson’s No Deal Brexit. The people’s elected representatives should be making the final decision on such a far reaching national issue.

In Southend, as in London, and all around the country, people from all parties and none, and those who voted both leave and remain, demonstrated their opposition to such an attack on democracy.
