Just a reminder that if you aren’t getting a pay rise that is in line with current rates of inflation you are getting a pay cut. There’s never been a better time to unionise your workplace.

Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel.
Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it.
A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.

The tide is turning
Keep pushing
Until the genocidal war criminals are behind bars - and Zionism is dismantled

ilhan omar has been in the crosshairs of the right for a decade, trump consistently uses dehumanizing rhetoric against her, as he did in the earlier iowa rally today. he wanted this to happen.

I wrote a long essay on the effect of the establishment of Israel in the Arab a region on Egypt's modernization journey, why Egypt had to be taken out of the equation first, how the Camp David accords can explain the current moment and more for TNI

“Maduro, hold on — the people are rising!”
Reacting to reports that the US government has seized Nicolas Maduro, Venezuelans began to gather early this morning at the Presidential Palace in Miraflores, Caracas.

Six prisoners for Palestine are on their 32nd day of hunger strike.
Their health is severely deteriorating, with one described as 'skeletal'.
Each face upto two years on remand before trial and face harsher treatment as they are labelled as 'terrorists'.
This is an emergency

A Sikh woman raped in Oldbury, a child shot with an airgun in Bristol, an arson attack on the Barbican Thistle hotel - all last month. An Imam was stabbed in London last week, a Masjid set on fire in Sussex yesterday. No pleas for the fascists to stop marching in the aftermath.

Why is this so confusing for people? Yes, we should talk to reform voters. But protesting against black and brown people, branding them as threats to women and children, is racism. Demanding their deportation is racism. When white chauvinists casually mention “wealth tax”, if they do at all, what they mean is more money for militarized borders, deportations, corporate welfare, and wars

Update on Mikeno: CC GSF can’t confirm its status. AIS shows it in Gaza waters, but its route is unusual. Locals can’t see it, and it’s unclear if participants are still onboard.
The vessel carries activists from Brazil, Türkiye, Netherlands, Norway, USA, and Spain. We hope everyone is safe.

Gary is a symptom of the left’s weakness, and frantic attempts to see his support for a wealth tax and the viewers and support that generated as some barometer of future victory were unsurprisingly going to unravel

The genocide is accelerating. The world needs to act. Unions everywhere need to be following in the footsteps of Italian workers who have successfully pressured their government.

🚨🚨 WE URGENTLY NEED FUNDS 🚨🚨

What is happening in the North of Gaza is indescribable. Entire residential blocks are being flattened with terrifying fire belts. The hospitals are being attacked. Families are stuck under the rubble, no one able to reach them.
People who want to leave cannot find or afford transport. Once they get South they have no shelter and no place to go. One way transportation is $2,000 and a tent is $1,200 in cash - meaning 40% withdrawal commission! Those who remain in the North still need food and water for survival. Those that make it South also need food and water. Patients need medical care. Vulnerable families need places to live.
The Sameer Project has a plan to assist as much as possible BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! 🚨 Donations are slowing at the worst possible time when people in Gaza are the most in need. 🚨
Please donate to, share with your networks, spread our Displacement Response Campaign. Without you we cannot do this, we must help Gaza together. ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼

Our age mates in Italy are shutting down ports and orchestrating mass strikes, while we are trying to figure out whether it’s worth becoming members of the UK’s most messiest non existent political party.

Welcome news that Your Party is reopening membership. But fragility still remains.
That’s why grassroots supporters have proposed an Independent Interim Team to steady the ship + ensure a genuinely democratic founding conference.

No clarity on what’s happened to the membership of those that signed up on the 18th. I keep being taken to a sign up page despite an annual payment being taken from me. Why can’t we access the portal? Are there two separate memberships? Is this another power grab without the MOU?
