2009 News ArchiveThe Youth Fight for Jobs banner flew high over Trafalgar Square as Kyly takes to the plinth!(August 10, 2009) The Youth Fight for Jobs (YFJ) banner flew high over Trafalgar Square as Coventry YFJ and Communication Workers' Union (CWU) member Kyly Wilson used her hour on the 'Fourth Plinth' to raise awareness about this important campaign. During her stint, as part of Anthony Gormley's 'One & Other' art project, on Sunday 9 August, Kyly addressed the crowd on her megaphone, describing the situation young people face and the aims of the YFJ campaign. Red t-shirt clad campaign supporters distributed leaflets to passers-by and found a lot of support for the campaign. In her press statement Kyly said: "No one's going to just give us what we need to survive, we need to fight, and we need to do it now." |
