Write to RED WEEKLY (distribution), 182 Pentonville Road, London N.1., England in this index there will be an automatic increase in the grant However, students, like the working class, have the right to an increase in their wing standards, not just compensation. Thus the sliding scale has to be tied to a flat rate increase in the grant.

If students have to continually chase after the effects of inflation then the likely result is simply de. moralisation. The sliding scale will defend the gains already made and act as a springboard to win a real increase in living standards. That is why IMG students will be calling for: -E850 for all, tied to a sliding scale. -Abolition of discretionary awards and discrimination against matried women.

For a rent and price freeze. -The Labour Government must reverse the cuts.

For a student-worker alliance. Rick Sissons
