[Tribune @tribunemagazine]

We’re going to be holding rallies across the country.

We’re going to be organising community resistance.

We’re going to be on picket lines.

[ACORN Bristol @ACORN_Bristol]

@MarvinJRees It's a shame that the current administration can't work with ACORN as @housingpaul did. But ACORN members know we can't depend on fair-weather politicians to give us what we need for secure, affordable housing and decent, dignified lives. We have to win it for ourselves.

[ACORN Bristol @ACORN_Bristol]

WHITEWASH! 🚨
STITCHUP! 🚨
This afternoon we stormed the Living Rent Commission meeting! The Commission is a group of organisations set up to tackle the renting crisis. It has been stitched up by @MarvinJRees , who banned ACORN but decided to invite plenty of landlords.

@TylerGlaiel Not everyone can afford to "free themselves of control", that has a cost in rent, bills, food, hardware etc. That movement was based on people who had the material circumstances to "free themselves". Lots of devs need money and want help determining if a deal is worth the cost

[Sam Chester @SamChesterD]

@Etruscan_Raider @Kennedy2523 @mikeduncan I feel like Madero also needs a special mention for doing absolutely everything in his power to make sure someone would assassinate him, former friend or enemy, after overthrowing Diaz

[The Animation Guild // #WeAre839 @animationguild]

Animation Domination! That's right, production workers at #TheSimpsons, #AmericanDad & #FamilyGuy have filed to unionize under the #AnimationGuild! Together, they boast more that 750 years of animation industry experience - let's show them some respect! #productionstrong

@deepfriedmilton Dude the Qing were overthrown in 1912, no need to be afraid of them or their influence over your water supply

[Sam Chester @SamChesterD]

@notXiangyu @GlitchMadeGhost @sensomnoire Ahh yeh of course, good point

[IWGB Couriers @IWGB_CLB]

Absolute state of it.

Our branch, run by couriers, has no interest in cosy partnerships or deals with exploitative companies like @Deliveroo

Since 2016 IWGB deliveroo members have been successfully organising to win higher pay and better conditions across the UK.

[ACORN Oxford @ACORNOxford]

HUGE VICTORY! The government has approved of Oxford’s ‘selective licensing scheme’. All privately rented homes now need a license ensuring their homes are safe.

We organised, took on the landlord lobby, and won🏆

@garfxist @joeywreck Ahh I've been using Super Chinese for a couple months, been really great after bouncing off a couple of the generic language apps. Might have to give this one a go too though

[Amazon Labor Union IBT @amazonlabor]

It’s official‼️Amazon Labor Union is the first Amazon union in US HISTORY‼️POWER TO THE PEOPLE! #UnionStrong #ALUfortheWin

[ACORN Bristol @ACORN_Bristol]

ACORN members and residents of Corbett House in Redfield met today with a constituency rep for @ThangamMP.
They spoke of the terrible conditions in their block and neglect shown by @BristolCouncil. How will Thangam stand up for her constituents and hold the Council to account?

[ACORN Bristol @ACORN_Bristol]

Carmen and her two kids face being evicted illegally in just two weeks.

Today we marched on her letting agent. Safe to say they weren't pleased to see us! But we'll be coming back until they give Carmen and her kids a guarantee that they can stay put in their family home.

@DualPowerRanger @fembrute1 Fidel wasn't just lucky, he was smart. I love Sankara but he was warned about the plot and refused to take action against his comrade, so he was killed and the project was destroyed. That was a mistake. Decentralised power has its own weaknesses, neither is a guarantee of success

[IWGB Game Workers @IWGB_GW]

A massive thank you to the Icelandic Confederation of Labour for their letter of support for the @LockwoodLKWD workers facing unlawful redundancy.

Iceland has some of the strongest labour laws in the world, making @hallibjornsson's actions even more shameful.

#lockwoodlockout

[Nadia Whittome MP @NadiaWhittomeMP]

Nottingham-based Lockwood Publishing is making 10% of its staff redundant just before Christmas.

I share the @IWGBunion's concerns that the process they are using is unlawful.

I've written to @LockwoodLKWD. This redundancy process should be halted immediately.

[Game Worker Solidarity @GWSolidarity]

🚨 The Game Worker Solidarity website is now live 🚨

We launched today with an online talk from workers organising at Activision Blizzard and Paizo ✊🎮

Have a look at the archive so far and let us know what you think - and if anything is missing! 💬
