CEP rally – 18th October at Shrewsbury
The Shropshire branch of the CEP is holding a rally on Saturday the 18th of October in Shrewsbury.
We’ll be meeting somewhere central – probably Pride Hill or near the hideous Market Hall – at around 10am and hand out leaflets.
The theme of the rally will be the NHS. Just over the border in Wales they have free prescriptions and free hospital parking. The Welsh government doesn’t even pay the going rate for their treatment in English hospitals, costing the hospitals in Shrewsbury, Oswestry & Telford over £1m per year in lost revenues. In Scotland they will all be entitled to free prescriptions from April next year and in Northern Ireland prescriptions will be only £3 next year and free for all from 2010.
Please get in touch for more details.

Pity I can’t get down there.
