Campaigners are taking to the streets of Newcastle to protest over the cost of living crisis and the "shocking" sacking of 800 P&O workers.
The People’s Assembly has organised demonstrations across the UK this weekend, as the cost of living crisis continues to intensify. Thousands of people will take to the streets on Saturday including residents in the North East who will meet at 11.30am at Newcastle's Civic Centre before a rally is held at Grey's Monument at 12.00pm.
Saturday's Cost of Living Crisis demonstrations will be the third in a series of protests organised by the People’s Assembly supported by trade unions and campaigners. The first two saw thousands protest against the "lack of action from the Government" to support those suffering hardships as fuel and food prices rise.
