Pensioner's march June 19, 2004

About 10,000 workers and pensioners marched through London on Saturday June 19, 2004 to highlight the UK's pensions crisis. The "Pay Up for Pensions" rally organised by the TUC called for a decent retirement for all and a new pensions partnership. Low-income workers have been hit hardest by cutbacks in work-based pensions. It is the first TUC-organised rally to protest against what has been described as "a growing pension crisis".
