Finally some honesty about the disgusting treatment Jeremy Corbyn received from figures at the BBC. And it’s coming from…Alistair Campbell.

It shouldn't fall to Marcus Rashford and Gary Lineker to highlight basic issues of social justice. That's supposed to be the job of the Labour Party.

I would like to buy this wonderful human being a pint. 🔥 #BBCQT
A sensible and much cheaper UK #asylum policy would be to let people apply online from abroad. But then the #Tories would not be able to use the issue to distract from rising #childpoverty #CostOfLivingCrisis and their mismanagement of the economy. #ToriesOut

.@AyoCaesar to a Tory MP: "you said in order to get the best talent we've got to lift the cap on bankers bonuses, pays got to be competitive. But when it comes to the NHS or education, you’re effectively saying to all these public sector workers, get poorer & be happy about it"

🚨 PLEASE RT 🚨
Defend the #RightToStrike 👊
On Monday, the government will try to ram through its anti-strike law.
An attack on the very frontline workers they once called “heroes”.
We’ll be protesting outside Parliament from 6PM.

BREAKING 🚨 | The first reading of the bill to restrict the right to strike is TODAY.
If passed, this will mean health, education and other key workers will be forced to work - and SACKED if they don't comply.
MPs must reject this cynical legislation.

So glad the railways were privatised – for £60, I’m crammed in a vestibule without a seat on a delayed train, safe in the knowledge that billions have been paid out to shareholders rather than being invested to improve the service or pay workers more.

This one might just be my angriest yet: Strikes!

The Government are blocking a deal between the RMT and the train companies, leaving thousands of workers striking without pay in the next few weeks
The reason? They want to make an example of workers willing to fight back and demand their worth
RT if you're behind @RMTunion 👊
