Nick Clegg's constituency of Sheffield to make 8,500 redundant

Just as Sheffield housing services is facing a very real crisis

The GMB which represents approximately half of all staff employed at Sheffield Homes is concerned that despite the Lib Dem controlled Council having increased rents within Sheffield Homes by 3.6% they are determined to press for savings of £108,000 senior management costs. This will be on top of the £940,000 budget cut overall.

The trade union Shop Stewards from GMB, UNITE and UNISON have written jointly to Councillor Bob McCann (Lib Dem Council Cabinet member for Housing) to request an emergency meeting. Councillor McCann has subsequently refused to meet them.

Peter Davies, GMB Organiser said, “GMB know that the Lib Dems are claiming that they have challenged the company to find these savings without affecting front line services but in an organisation that has shed 191 jobs in 2 years that is simply impossible. The company are currently looking to find 40+ redundancies because of pressures on their budget, anyone who thinks that will be a simple case of shedding jobs at the top or cutting back on costs is kidding themselves.

If there is any doubt amongst voters with regard to what would be in store should the Lib Dems hold the sway of power in the next government then, they should look no further than Sheffield. They are clinging on Sheffield so I hope Sheffield Homes tenants are looking closely at this because the future of our housing services is facing a very real crisis already.”

The blame for this reduction in services and in jobs lie firmly at the door of David Cameron and Nick Clegg." So we are told by trade union bureaucrats such as Peter Davies, who have sat as front line staff have been told to provoke conflict with the public, then we can deny them service.

Of course this comes from direct experience, underclassrising.net are not saying this is overall policy at Sheffield City Council it comes from direct experience. Sheffield City Council under the former Labour Party administration of Blunkett Betts and co, used the finance allocated for the repair of Sheffield City Council housing stock to fight the former Conservative government before they come to power in 1997 and in there 13 years they have attacked the very Working Class they proclaim to be fighting for and lets not forget the role of The Left Wing.

They told The Working Class VOTE LABOUR WITH NO ILLUSIONS, in the years of The Conservative government and Labour government, we have seen half of Sheffield Homes demolished, the service go from crises to crises, homeless increase in Sheffield and the front line workers asked to provoke conflict with the public, from The Lib Democrats to Sheffield Green Party, we have been told this is not fact.

As 8,500 staff at Sheffield face advance notification of redundancies, we need to understand that the former Labour/Conservative Governments have attacked the working class.

The cry s of the left wing and trade union bureaucrats such as Peter Davies are nothing new, you can not reform capitalism but only works towards the abolition of the problem that is capitalism underclassrising.net want anarchy not anarchism, neither do we desire reform but a full on fight back uniting all workers under attack, be them unemployed or working the only change we desire is revolution not reform, see you on the streets.

The blame for this reduction in services and in jobs lie firmly at the door of David Cameron and Nick Clegg."

Methinks the blame for this lies much deeper and darker than these muppets who are puppets for the corrupt, power - seeking cowards of Imperialism and its Media and Military bullythugs.

BSE....we all have to put up with it.

Don't we?

Nick Clegg only has a majority of about 9,000. He's not getting back in ever is he?
