Austerity: 2017 edition

Austerity has disappeared from UK political rhetoric since summer 2016. This doesn't mean that cuts have stopped happening. A deepening crisis is social care is a high profile example of the impact of cuts over the long term. 

There are lots of ways we can try and make sure that cuts to public services don't slip out of the debate completely. 

Actions

  • Learn! Brush up on the issues caused by cuts using our publications and resources.
  • Share! Contribute to the public debate by sharing the issues. You could start a conversation at work, or share our briefing paper. 
  • Reflect!  Reflect on experiences, by sharing and writing stories of Everyday Austerity online and with colleagues and clients.
  • Influence! Influence the electoral debate through writing to your local candidates or attending a hustings.
