This will be an opportunity, one week after the biggest strike since 1926, for us to consider some of the implications of this new mass movement. What opportunities does it begin to open up for replacement of the failing capitalist system with rule by and for the 99%? The meeting will be on Wednesday 7th December at 19.00 in the Vauxhall Centre, Johnson Pl, Norwich, Norfolk NR2 2SA.
