1. Jeremy Corbyn and Syria
Merseyside Arms Group Committee condemns the terrorism of Isis but history shows, particularly the Iraq invasion, that military intervention serves to worsen an already appalling situation and cannot create a sustainable solution. Support should be given to those forces who stand for peace, socialism and democracy within Syria. Therefore, we support Jeremy Corbyn whose refusal to back armed intervention against Syria reflects the wishes of the thousands who backed him as leader, and we condemn the Tories and their warmongering agencies of the media and Labour MPs who constantly attack him.
We call on the PCS NEC to declare their support for the stand adopted by Jeremy Corbyn.
2. Tory spending plans
We condemn the latest government cuts contained in the last budget statement. Far from it being a give-away budget as depicted by sections of the media, it proposes a continuation of endless austerity while those responsible for the financial crash continue to enrich themselves. We also condemn the proposed closure of offices of the HMRC which not only affects our members’ jobs and security but also diminishes the ability of government agencies to collect the massive amounts of tax avoided by the national and international tax dodgers.
We call on the PCS NEC to reaffirm its opposition to austerity and the crazed policy of privatisation being perpetrated by this government.
