I used to work for the TUC, they employed me on an insecure seasonal contract, rehiring me on a new contract every year, and then used that loophole to essentially fire me because I have a disability. Fuck these weak scumbags.
NEW 🚨 | The Government will reduce the qualifying period for full protection from unfair dismissal from two years to six months.
There’ll also be no statutory probation period.
The Employment Rights Bill is essential to better quality, more secure jobs for millions of workers.
The absolute priority now is to get these rights – like day one sick pay - on the statute book so that working people can start benefitting from them from next April.
Following the government’s announcement, it’s now vital that Peers respect Labour’s manifesto mandate and that this Bill secures Royal Assent as quickly as possible.
I had a double lung transplant just like Ben. The only difference is that I live in a country with socialised healthcare, so I paid zero out of pocket, whereas his family had to beg for money to get the surgery. Which one sounds more appealing?
Hey @nationalexpress your staff just discriminated against me as a disabled person, and also accused me of “throwing” the equality act at them when they didn’t like having to help me out. Completely unacceptable in every sense of the word.

it really sucks going from “wow, i’m really happy this artist i love is finally getting widespread recognition and acclaim” to “i don’t think anyone should be allowed to hear charli xcx ever again” in the course of 2 months

I hate how everything costing a fortune is so normalised now. What do you meeeean £150 for a concert ticket? What do you meeeean £100 for a train ticket? What do you meeeean £50 for a family to have a chippy tea? What do you meeean £7 for a single pint? Robbing bastards!!

Ash Sarkar breaks down the real reason British culture is crumbling. Hint: it’s got nothing to do with immigration.

In Bristol today it was not the police that prevented a lynch mob of fascists gaining access to immigrant housing but a cordon of antifascists bravely putting their bodies on the line to protect the people within.
The state is failing catastrophically to protect minorities.

Labour getting a lower vote share than 2019 obviously doesn’t make this a worse result, obviously. It does though make it seem particularly unfair that 2019 led to a consensus that the Corbyn movement were all freaks and weirdos with nothing to say to the country.
