Thousands gather in front of screens for biggest online rally of lockdown
People's Assembly Against Austerity

THOUSANDS of people gathered in front of their screens on Thursday at the People’s Assembly Against Austerity’s online “The Fight For Our Lives” rally.

Over 14,000 people watched the event live, and thousands more tuned in after it ended. Members of the public took part using the hashtag #HealthBeforeWealth.

Green Party deputy leader Amelia Womack called for an end to benefit sanctions as thousands are “falling through the holes of a safety net that was never designed to protect them.”
