150,000 protest in London for Health, Homes, Jobs & Education

16/04/2016: An estimated 150,000 people marched through Central London to protest against government austerity policies which are having serious impacts on public health, housing, employment, wages and education. Organised by The People's Assembly, the "March for Health, Homes, Jobs & Education" protesters represented junior doctors, nurses, NHS workers, teachers, students, firefighters, disability rights and welfare rights campaigners, local government employees and a wide cross section of aggrieved citizens who claim that they are being unjustly impoverished by an uncaring Conservative government which is purposefully dismantling public services and handing them to private capital to fund tax relief for the wealthiest.

An extra post-Panama Papers data leak flavour prevailed at the protest with many people carrying "Dodgy Dave" placards - a reference to Prime Minister David Cameron's recent painfully drawn-out admission over four days that he has personally benefitted from the use of offshore tax havens set up by his late father.
