Boris to talk on Rape Crisis centres?


by Newswire    

London Mayor Boris Johnson is expected to make an announcement on the future of London’s Rape Crisis funding on Monday morning.

He has been continually harassed by the Boris Keep Your Promise Campaign in recent weeks. During the run-up to his election Boris Johnson promised, with much PR fanfare, to pay for three new centres and fund the only remaining centre for at least 4 years. But that promise is now seriously in doubt.

He was also recently ambushed over his campaign pledges by campaigners (video).

The campaign sent out a campaign alert today to keep up the pressure on Boris.

1. Invite your friends to the Facebook group
and ask them to do the same. The more people we can tell about what our campaign, the harder City Hall has to work to cover up their funding cuts!

2. We’ve made a film explaining what Boris Keeps Your Promise stands for (video below) and what we want from him. Get it out there for us!

3. We are about to launch our fundraising campaign. We’re want to get 2000 people donating as little as £2 a month. For more see our website at http://www.boriskeepyourpromise.org.uk.
