Thank unions, it’s Friday. Weekends weren’t given. They were won. Every rest day exists because workers and trade unions organised and refused endless work. Rest is a victory.

🎂Happy Birthday to #HongKong trade unionist Lee Cheuk-yan. On this day, we send solidarity to him and all who continue to speak truth in the face of repression. Lee, along with fellow activist and Hong Kong Alliance member Chow Hang-tung, was arrested and detained for peacefully commemorating the 1989 Tiananmen crackdown. Both have been recognised by @amnesty as prisoners of conscience, jailed simply for exercising their rights to freedom of expression, association and peaceful assembly. 📷 Sign our petition to demand ther immediate release: amnesty.org/en/petition/fr… #StandWithHongKong #FreeLeeCheukYan #FreeHongKongPoliticalPrisoners @amnestychinese

📢 We stand in solidarity with @BWIglobal, Palestine's trade union movement and we reiterate that trade union solidarity is not a crime. #UnionStrong #GlobalUnions @abellanger49

All our solidarity! ➡️Workers must be able to speak and organise without fear of reprisal. ➡️Building must not enable displacement, annexation, or erasure. ➡️Those who rebuild must have rights to land, safety, and dignity. #1u

We will resist the crackdown by governments like Israel and Panama on legitimate international trade union solidarity and monitoring. Solidarity with @BWIglobal and Palestine's trade union movement!

✊Solidarity with our colleagues from @BWIglobal who were barred from entering the West Bank to meet with Palestinian workers, alongside leaders from global construction unions. This was not an isolated incident, it is part of a broader pattern: a few weeks ago, a delegation from @eduint was also blocked from entering Palestine and forcibly returned to Jordan. The ITUC stands in solidarity with Palestinian workers and their unions, and demands respect for trade union rights, freedom of movement, and international law. 👉 Read the full statement from BWI: bwint.org/BwiNews/NewsDe…
