ANTI-AUSTERITY campaigners have called for a co-ordinated struggle against the cost-of-living crisis, privatisation of services and soaring billionaire profits.

A public meeting, organised by the People’s Assembly and Muslim Association of Britain in Holloway, north London, heard from leaders of the movement on Wednesday evening.

RMT president Alex Gordon said it was disgraceful that people were being arrested for protesting against the inauguration of King Charles III as an unelected head of state, who is inheriting billions of pounds without having to pay tax on it.
