Ambulance workers could be the first facing the sack for taking strike action, under this Tory government’s new draconian laws. They are leading the march to protect the #RightToStrike, just as GCHQ workers did 40 years ago under Thatcher’s government #CheltenhamDemo

"My political understanding is this: if I am doing well, I want others to do well, too. I believe in the welfare state. I'm not privately insured. I would never vote for a party because they promised to lower the top tax rate. I'm on the left, of course." Love this quote from Jurgen Klopp.
