Aitor Zabaleta was a supporter of the Basque left-wing club Real Sociedad. He was murdered by Atletico Madrid ultras in 1998.

Fascist supporters & ultras of Atletico chant celebrating his death, even 28 years later.

Against fascism in football, against fascism everywhere. UTG.

A reminder of when Wes Streeting called Jeremy Corbyn ‘senile’, intended as a slur.

Streeting insulted not just Jeremy Corbyn. But insulted the 1ml people in 🇬🇧 suffering from dementia & their loved ones

Wes Streeting is Secretary of State for Health

Labour truly is rancid.

Multimillionaire who lives in a 10 bedroom mansion wants you to vote for a multimillionaire who has 4 houses, that man wants to abolish our NHS.
Because getting looked after when you’re ill is not something either of those two c*nts has to worry about.

Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%.

That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.

🔴 The man who saved Europe and the world from the Nazi monster is the most vilified political leader in modern history. When he died, his only personal belongings were his jacket with decorations, two pairs of high-boots and a big library of books - all thoroughly read through with his comments in red pencil. Nothing more. Eternal glory Joseph Vissarionovich #Stalin!

"Welfare cuts target people who rely on support to survive, disabled people, carers, the unemployed, and those in insecure work. For 40 years our economy has been marked by low investment, wage suppression and super-high profits... 1/3

DEFEND TRADE UNION RIGHTS – SUPPORT ERIK HELGESON!
The dismissal of Swedish Dockers' Union spokesperson and national deputy chair Erik Helgeson is a blatant act of retaliation for the union’s legally-sanctioned boycott of military cargo to and from Israel

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

I am deeply alarmed by the approach of the police yesterday to those peacefully protesting for Palestine, including the treatment of John McDonnell MP and Jeremy Corbyn MP, two elected MPs with decades of participating in peaceful protest.

There is now clear evidence coming to light that shows the reality of what took place and that runs contrary to what has been alleged.

People should not be targeted for peacefully protesting against genocide.

The anti-protest laws introduced by the Tories were an affront to our democratic freedoms and their implementation is clearly undermining long-held civil rights and the freedom of expression. They should be revoked.

[Matt Wrack @MattWrack]

I have to report that I have not been re-elected as General Secretary of the FBU.

I am proud to have led the Fire Brigades Union for two decades, a period which has seen eight Prime Ministers. We have fought back against attacks on the fire service and we have laid the ground for real progress.

Much of the FBU’s work in that time is only now coming to fruition. For the first time in more than twenty years, we should soon see national standards in the fire service, and the FBU is able to play its role in advising ministers directly on fire service policy.

Because of our campaigning, and that of other unions, we are also likely to see the biggest workers’ rights package in recent years, including the repeal of anti-union laws that sought to ban effective strike action in our sector.

By mobilising and winning an overwhelming mandate for industrial action, the FBU has won a 16% pay rise over the past three years, with no strings attached. We have also had significant progress on maternity pay and the retaining fee for RDS firefighters.

I am proud to have led the longest period of strike action in our union’s history, over pensions, in 2013-15. Our legal fight on pensions has won many millions for firefighters and £19bn for workers across the public sector.

Our DECON campaign has changed the conversation in our sector about fire contaminants.

The FBU has played a leading role in the fight for equality, in the face of some appalling behaviours and a systemic failure by fire service leadership. This work has meant having difficult conversations inside our union and must be continued.

I leave the FBU with my head held high. Since the age of 16 I have been an active anti -racist, anti-fascist. I became a socialist as a teenager and I have been a trade unionist all my working life. My views and values have not changed and I will continue that fight.

[Dave Ward @DaveWardGS]

Mick Lynch is without doubt one of the very best and most important Trade Union leaders our movement and the country has ever seen.

He has stood up for his members and all workers with levels of courage and skill that few could ever match - exposing many bosses, politicians and media figures along the way.

A truly inspirational leader and a great friend and comrade.

A well earned retirement.

@raw1001 @RMTunion As of Jan 2025, you can’t read or understand that it’s not drivers on strike

Stop lying to the public! (Or the public on X at any rate)
