Congratulations to Veolia Environmental Services workers in Chesterfield!

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

GMB WIN 🚨: Chesterfield bin strike called off after workers secure 7.5% pay rise. 👏

[Christopher Jones for Wakefield 🟨🟥 @Chris4Wakefield]

I've been out supporting the strikes. Workers across Wakefield are standing together, and unlike Labour I stand with them ✊

As a show of solidarity, all our on-the-ground campaigning in Wakefield has been suspended today so I and our members can support the picket lines 🟨🟥

[Northern Independence Party 🟨🟥 @FreeNorthNow]

Unlike @UKLabour, we will always stand on the side of workers against greedy bosses.

[Northern Independence Party 🟨🟥 @FreeNorthNow]

What does Labour stand for? 🌹

Your guess is as good as ours 🤔

Christopher Jones stands up for our workers, immigrants, and services ✊

This Thursday, stand with Chris. Vote Northern Independence Party 🟨🟥

Ban fracking!

[South Yorkshire NIP @SYorksNIP]

95% in favour is a great result.

Wales allows councils to tax 2nd homes 3x the usual rate.

An independent North could do that and so much more.

[Sky News @SkyNews]

Whitby residents vote in favour of ending second home ownership in seaside town https://t.co/qDz2hjwp5g

[South Yorkshire NIP @SYorksNIP]

Because there's a housing crisis and not everyone has a first home.

[Mr-Stu @mrstu69]

@SkyNews What nonsense, give me a reason why people shouldn't own a second home if they can afford one and want a holiday home elsewhere?

In Rotherham, the £150 Council Tax rebate is actually £135 if you don't pay by direct debit.

Being poor is expensive.

[South Yorkshire NIP @SYorksNIP]

We have a solution to inflation.

Nationalise energy companies.

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

"No government... can afford to use taxpayers' money to shield everyone completely from the increased costs caused by powerful global forces."

Boris Johnson warns against a return to stagflation, a mix of slow economic growth and rapid inflation, in a speech on the economy.

[South Yorkshire NIP @SYorksNIP]

Food banks across the North are struggling because people can't afford to donate.

The work food banks do is life-saving, but can't be a stand-in for a properly functioning social safety net.

[South Yorkshire NIP @SYorksNIP]

May: 63.1%
Johnson: 58.8%

[South Yorkshire NIP @SYorksNIP]

That's less than 60% of Johnson's own MPs have confidence in him.

Worse than Theresa May's vote.

[Britain Elects @BritainElects]

Conservative parliamentary party, vote of confidence in the Prime Minister:

Confidence: 211 MPs
No confidence: 148 MPs

[South Yorkshire NIP @SYorksNIP]

Tory members really are spoilt for choice.

[YouGov @YouGov]

If Boris Johnson were deposed, who would Conservative members want to succeed him?

Ben Wallace: 12%
Liz Truss: 11%
Jeremy Hunt: 10%
Penny Mordaunt: 8%
Rishi Sunak / Michael Gove: =7%
Priti Patel: 6%
Tom Tugendhat/Nadhim Zahawi: =5%

Pay up Arriva

[Christopher Jones for Wakefield 🟨🟥 @Chris4Wakefield]

The cost of living is skyrocketing, rubbish is piling up in the streets, our public services have been slashed to the bone, and twenty thousand people in Wakefield are on the waiting list for a home.

It’s time things changed.

Solidarity with Unite fighting for reasonable pay for their members!

[Unite - North East, Yorkshire and Humber @UniteNEYH]

BREAKING: Indefinite all out strike action affecting Arriva in #Wakefield, #Castleford, #Dewsbury, #Kirklees, #Selby and #Leeds will start on Monday 6th June after talks broke down due to the company failing to bring forward an offer that would be acceptable to our members.
