– resist benefit cuts
– outlaw poverty pay & Zero Hours Contracts
– demand £10 NOW as a living minimum wage

Poverty and inequality scar the face of Scotland. A million are below the breadline – including 220,000 kids – in the 14th richest nation on earth!

Attend this public meeting. Hear people directly hit by poverty and inequality, who are fighting back. Hear the SSP’s case for a £10 minimum wage NOW, for all over 16, with equal pay for women.

Join the battle to put people before profit, and to bring an end to poverty.otprint” for my tent in anticipation of having to pitch on rough or dirty sites.
