Starmer breaks promise to repeal anti-worker laws - a week after making it, triggering union walk-out. Unite, GMB walk out of Labour's NPF after 'hostile' manoeuvres against workers' rights - leaving 'cosy' Graham out on limb...

[NHS Nurses @SocialistNHS]

Despite having a private wealth of £2 billion & paying no inheritance tax

King Charles' grant is expected to increase from £86m to £125m paid for by the taxpayer

There's never any new money for, nurses, teachers or doctors but always for the rich

"GMB want equal pay for women and are willing to go to war with the party over it. It's a red line."

Not sure what the amendment specifically calls for.

Told there's anger across the board over a whole host of worker/trade union issues.

[Taj Ali @Taj_Ali1]

Trade unionists are furious about "rude and offensive comms" sent from LOTO staff.

[Taj Ali @Taj_Ali1]

Union source: "Essentially boycotted dinner. Tables sparse with Starmer in attendance"

General Secretaries are meeting to discuss an "incompetent and duplicitous attempt to bounce trade unions."

[Taj Ali @Taj_Ali1]

A huge row has broken out at the Labour Party's national policy forum between trade unions and the party leadership.

Unions were proposing amendments to strengthen workers' rights.

"Fait accompli provided. Party staffers trying to tell general secretaries what to do. Pathetic."

When @UKLabour aren't answering your calls...but you turn up anyway.

If @UKLabour are serious about reducing child poverty, they must commit to scrapping the #SiblingTax.

Some great work going on with player welfare but we can’t fathom why the elite GRTP protocol doesn’t start from a position of greater caution.

For all the headlines, we still have a process where elite players can play just 7 days after being diagnosed with a brain injury.

Autumn Shaganash, a 26-year-old woman from Barrie, has been missing since June 9 when she was last seen leaving her sister's house. It’s been almost a month and a half since her family last saw or heard from her.

Apart from Chile, England is the only country in world where someone owns the Water and you have to pay them whatever they want to use it.

Doesn’t sound like a great idea does it, which is why no one else has done it.

[Alex Nunns @alexnunns]

Keir today admitted "changing the party"—purging the left & its policies—was premeditated. He "strongly believed" it was the "first thing we had to do" "at speed."

So by his own account, his mantra when running for leader—“Don’t trash the last 4 years"—was consciously dishonest.

[Jamie Driscoll @JamieDriscollNE]

I’ve decided to resign from @UKLabour and serve as an Independent Mayor.

People are tired of being controlled by Westminster and Party HQs. They want someone to stand up for them. Let the people decide. £25k by end of Aug & I’ll stand as North East Mayor👉https://t.co/WuDEGd3xxJ

and saving the best til last: Colm met with chants of "give me my money back" and "pay your workers"

[Staff-Student Solidarity Network Edinburgh @sssn_edi]

Colm was called on to "resign" by many students

[Staff-Student Solidarity Network Edinburgh @sssn_edi]

Thread of every time vice-principal Colm Harmon was heckled at SPS graduation today 🔥

[EuropeanPowell @EuropeanPowell]

This is extremely disturbing, it confirms that all traces of the foundations and principles of the left are being systematically expunged from the Labour party. Time to set up independent alternatives.

[Dr Andrew Meyerson @AndrewMeyerson]

Dear 🇬🇧,

This govt inherited the #1 health system, intentionally destroyed it, and now exploit its current ravaged state — one they engineered — to argue the NHS model is broken and to push for a private system. They have zero credibility. Thank you @OwenJones84.
