A Walker

Climate breakdown is a class issue. While millions struggle to heat their homes, fossil fuel giants profit from their impoverishment. An economy built for the 1% will destroy everything we know and love. A Green Industrial Revolution is long overdue. independent.co.uk/news/business/…

CAN ALL UCU MEMBERS PLEASE RT THIS THREAD. As members and branches discuss potential action in the #ucuRISING dispute, I wanted to let you know we have been working on phase 2 of the campaign.

Rishi Sunak, the new Prime Minister, says he’ll do “whatever it takes” to send refugees to Rwanda. Well - we'll do whatever it takes to STOP that. Who's with us?

The poor and middle-class are paying taxes, the rich are paying accountants, and the wealthy are paying politicians.

In coronating Rishi Sunak, Tory MPs have decided that a former hedge fund manager is a safe pair of hands. The question is: for who? The new Prime Minister will look after the interests of the 1%. The 99% will pay for their protection.

Andy Corbett, 51 years of service, number 1 seniority at Blackpool delivery office. Was at Royal Mail for the great strike of 71. First member on the picket this morning. ✊

115,000 Postal Workers are back on strike tomorrow. They are fighting for their lives. They need to know they have your support. RT if you are backing your local postie and their fight against a vicious employer. #StandByYourPost

WE DID IT! Our union has smashed the threshold and delivered a massive YES vote in the pay and conditions ballot History has been made #ucuRISING

@AdamRutherford Everyone knows the Scots have a genetic advantage when it comes to curling. (And caber tossing).

Here is a classic example of modern scientific racism. I am no blank slatist - as a geneticist, it would be an absurd position to take. However, this thread below is very much mistaken, and not the open goal that the author believes. Here's why:

Solidarity to our 40,000 BT and Openreach members who are on strike today. Let’s do this #FoodbankPhil

A "tough choice" is deciding whether to feed your children or heat your home. Austerity is not a tough choice. It is a political choice to wage class warfare on the most vulnerable. The right choice is taxing the rich, public ownership, and a redistribution of wealth & power.

We could build a society that actually works for people, not unending corporate profit! A society that - I dunno - might be able to actually survive the coming decade!

Thanks to everyone who has written in support of my @guardian piece urging radical change. I must make one correction: it’s not about Corbynism. It’s about socialism. The fight for a kinder society is a collective struggle: we owe it to each other to win. theguardian.com/politics/2022/…

Nurses’ pay must rise with inflation. That is the bare minimum. Applause on our doorsteps rings hollow without solidarity on the picket line. If nurses go on strike, they will have my full support.

Tomorrow 155,000 CWU members are on strike. Royal Mail Group against an out of control CEO who won’t attend talks. BT Group against a CEO so cocky he won’t even negotiate. £6m pay package between them. RT if you are sick of this type of business leader.

The debacle of Liz Truss’ short-lived premiership is a symptom of a broken economic system and a trashed democracy. We will continue to lurch from crisis to crisis — and ordinary people will pay the price — until we finally build a society for the many, not the few.

The government may be in free fall, but the fight against greedy bosses goes on. Solidarity with @CWUnews members and postal workers up and down the country on strike today. #StandByYourPost

Grant Shapps, who used a fake name in order to pose as a "millionaire web marketer" running a get-rich-quick scheme, and then lied about it for three years, is now in charge of law, order and security in the UK.

115,000 postal workers and 40,000 BT workers strike tomorrow. They will never bow down to bullies. #StandByYourPost #FoodbankPhil
