We held a very angry branch meeting today where members discussed that not only have our employers failed to respond to our pay claim, but are now also planning further restructures and redundancies. Strike action continues tomorrow - pickets are at 8am-11am! 💪 #Solidarity

Honoured to lay wreaths on behalf of #OTJC & #NSMWAG this weekend remembering David Jones & Joe Green killed on picket lines in 1984. Rest in Power - you made the ultimate sacrifice fighting for jobs & communities #MinersStrike #NoJusticeNoPeace

Back again, strong again! ✊️ We refuse to accept a second year without a pay rise. There is no college without education workers - we demand a fair cost of living pay increase. #Solidarity @ShefTUC @sheffielducu @ucu

ORGREAVE JUSTICE MUST BE DONE AND SEEN TO BE DONE The inquiry should focus on the conduct of the police. The police should not investigate themselves. The inquiry panel must be worthy of conducting this important inquiry. Statement here: otjc.org.uk/orgreave-justi…
Miners Strike@Miners_Strike

A policeman, seen by millions on TV, repeatedly striking a miner with a truncheon at Orgreave is not to face any criminal charges. The announcement came from the Director of Public Prosecutions #OnThisDay 1984.

Good BetterBusesSY stall in Sheffield today giving out leaflets and collecting signatures calling for a 'public voice' as South Yorkshire franchising proceeds.

Little bit late, but very proud to have been re-elected for a 3rd year as President of @ShefTUC. With an anti-worker govt here at home, and the rise of imperialism and militarism around the world, it will be a busy year. The fight for a Socialist world continues.

#Orgreave is one of the most serious abuses of power by police & govt in British trade union history. The truth has not been told or acknowledged by the state. Successive govts & police have covered it up. An #OrgreaveInquiry must hold police & govt to account #OrgreaveJustice

Strike action tomorrow and throughout February is SUSPENDED. This is at our employers request, to allow them to make a serious offer on pay. For the avoidance of doubt, strike action on the 4th, 6th, 10th and 12th March remains ON. In Solidarity, USIC UCU

Solidarity with @TheBMA and resident doctors who begin a week long strike today. Shame on @Keir_Starmer and @wesstreeting who have attempted to shame doctors fighting for a better NHS with more doctors on decent wages. #Solidarity
The BMA@TheBMA

Today 10,000s of doctors will go out on strike, as they're willing to stand up for their profession against a totally avoidable jobs and pay crisis. Resident doctors need jobs, and when they find those jobs, they need to be paid fairly for it. Striking is a last resort, we just need @wesstreeting to put an offer on the table that we can accept.

The striking communities withstood unprecedented police brutality & travesties of justice in the courts. They endured poverty, hunger & media smears, & they held firm for a year. The photographs in this book document that struggle. Order a copy here minersstrike.com

It seems @BhamCityCouncil no longer wants to hear about the genuine issues in their city. Dozens of residents refused entry to the full council meeting today, several questions rejected. If they won’t listen, DISRUPT!
