Outsourcing is a racket.
Outsourced workers across Britain are facing low pay, insecurity and impossible working conditions — while private companies profit.

Don’t let the far right scapegoat & divide us.

We need unity in working class communities #RefugeesAreNotToBlame

Three quarters of UK workers not on track for moderate pension income.

Result of years of austerity, low wages, high cost of living.

Maximum state pension is less than 50% of minimum wage. Neoliberals want to end the triple-lock.

Poverty awaits millions

Today, I stated that Israel's actions in Lebanon amount to war crimes.

The Minister accepted my assessment.

The govt must set out the steps it will take to ensure the UK does not aid or assist the commissioning of Israel's war crimes.

Please urge your MP to support this parliamentary motion from @grahamemorris calling for the Labour Government to reinstate Prison Officers' fundamental human right right to strike.

Black people are almost 9 times likely to be stopped and searched, 5 times more likely to have force used against them. Much more likely to be charged and to be refused bail - National Police Chiefs' Council.
Real discrimination. Real two tiers.

Private water companies are bad for us on every conceivable level.

BREAKING 🚨| The number of people in a union in the UK has GROWN by 192,000 - to 6.6 million.

There has never been a more important time to be a member of a union.

When unions do well, working people do well.

It pays to be in a union.

I refuse to accept the international community can’t stand together to make Israel respect international law. They are a democracy & that should mean something.

Banning the right to strike is the action of repressive and totalitarian regimes, Britain is supposed to be a democracy - that should include industrial democracy and universal human rights.
