The New European’s Shit List 2024
#1 Nigel Farage
WINNER, SHIT OF THE YEAR 2024
1/7 The MP for Clacton remains one of the most disingenuous, idiotic and persistent figures in British public life. Having finally won a Commons seat at the last general election, the leader of…
So Farage says he will cut fuel duty by 20p a litre costing £9.4billion but giving no details how he would pay for it. The IFS is right, Reform would crash the UK economy even worse than Liz Truss. Don’t believe a word Farage and Tice say. They are just populist fantasists.
🎄✊ This Christmas Eve, PCS members from G4S and OCS are holding the line at Abercrombie House, standing firm in their fight for
✅Better wages
✅ Fair sick pay
✅ To have their jobs brought back in-house, as pledged by Labour
Their commitment during the festive season highlights the importance of this strike, and we're with them every step of the way. 💪

Hundreds of #PCS members at Benton Park View in Newcastle are on strike for 8 weeks in support of the 3 reps sacked by HMRC in relation to their trade union activity. The members at Employer Services in PT Ops in Benton Park View in Newcastle will be on strike until 23 February unless the employer agrees to reinstate the three reps.

Tax Avoidance/evasion is 360x Benefit Fraud, and unclaimed benefits are 20x higher as well.
#Dispatches is just pushing the lie for their billlionaire advertising paymasters.
Disability History Month
Hannah David from PCS National Disabled Members' Forum talks us through new statistics from the TUC, and the picture looks to be getting worse rather than better
#PCS#DHM2024
Hey #Dispatches maybe you could investigate this guys life on benefits?
No known disability, never worked, has a £22bn empire.
But still claims £500,000,000 a year, and doesn't pay tax either.
Right wingers are the biggest hypocrites ever with the smallest balls ever, they shrink in person you see..
They’ll go for a curry or Chinese and say nothing
Get food delivered and say nothing
Get a taxi and say nothing
Go see a doctor and say nothing
Go to hospital see a nurse and say nothing
Go to petrol station or corner shop say nothing
Come online and slag every immigrant off and make them out to be evil
This is our society
It’s horrific a woman was left on a cold pavement waiting 5hrs for an ambulance with a broken hip. But people blaming Labour are wrong. Until 2010 people only waited minutes for ambulances, got Drs appointments the same day. What happened in 2010 again? Oh that’s Tories got in.
I often hear folks say, “Donald Trump sent me a check during the pandemic.”
I want to make sure you understand this: Congress sent you a check. By the way, Joe Biden also sent you a check during the pandemic, just like I gave people relief during the Great Recession. The difference is that we didn’t put our names on it – because it wasn’t about feeding our egos or advancing our politics, it was about helping people.
So don’t be giving him credit for that. And don’t give him your vote, either. There’s only one candidate in this election who cares about you, and that’s Kamala Harris.

Looking directly at Rishi Sunak as she states this is equivalent to £450 on a flight to say "California"
Sunak looks away

Read the #PCS response to the #Budget2024 which leaves the issue of endemic low pay still to be addressed in the civil service and related areas.
