In Penelope's own words

TUSC is a group of workers, trade unionists, young people, older people, students, ethnic and religious minorities, etc. I am one of many young students with working class parents just trying to get by, that is standing and campaigning for TUSC, because we're fighting for protections to the NHS, fighting against cuts to vital areas of funding that other brilliant and hard working workers need such as the winter fuel allowance, disability protections and school funding. We stand as members of worker's and student unions because we know the other parties are all funded by rich ideologues who do not represent the average working person. As such, we call for no more wasting our taxpayer money on frivolous pursuits while cutting funding to essential services, no more privatising, no more pandering to big businesses, no more attacks on the good working and middle class people of this country, no more harming our natural environment, no more to genocide in Gaza, and no more to the Tories, Labour, LibDems, Reform or the Greens, all of whom vote in favour of austerity and anti-union laws. Vote for TUSC where and when you can, as a workers' alternative for a workers' Britain.
