Public sector cuts - 'Tell Dave'‏

UNISON Northern has launched a 'Tell Dave' campaign in response to David Camerons consultation exercise inviting public sector workers to identify cuts. David Cameron has written to public sector workers asking for ideas on reducing the deficit - so let's tell Dave......
  • Make the banks cover the cost of the crisis they caused.
  • Tackle tax avoidance.
  • Cut unnecessary defence spending.
  • Cut spending on consultants and agency staff.
  • Engage with Trade Unions and staff to deliver real efficiency and improvement.
