There’s nothing too good for the working class

I'm a Dad to two wonderful little boys. This is utterly, gut wrenchingly fucking heartbreaking. Please, from the bottom of my heart, #CeasefireForGazaNOW #CeasefireNOW #CeaseFireInGaza

I clicked sort by age. There are 6 pages of these before you get to the one year olds.

Jeremy Corbyn has represented Islington North since before I was born.

He joined Labour when Keir Starmer was 3.

Starmer booted out someone he kept calling his "friend" to get elected leader because of factional spite.

@jeremycorbyn deserves to win 👇

@SophieEB You don't know me and this is a mega long shot and no pressure but... Is there any chance you might play As Long As I Belong in Yate on Saturday? It's my 4yo son's favourite and if you might, I'd forget bedtime for the night and bring him along! 🙏 👍

Can 1000s of low paid workers force politicians & employers to raise wages to a minimum £15? And if so, how can we make it happen?

Come along, strategise & get involved in the fight to lift half the workforce out of poverty. @fightfor15uk @UnionStu #FightFor15

[Darren Westwood @DarrenW38072886]

We're back.
26 days of action.
Amazon still say there is no money.
Yet we keep getting 50p extra every 6 months.
In April we will be on £12.50.
Still not enough. Just give us £15 and all this goes away.
We keep winning and we will not stop.
Back again tomorrow.

@GeorgeMonbiot I've been a fan of your work since I was 15 (I'm 38 now) but I cannot for the life of me understand this tweet. Why do you say the former is "deliberate" and not the later?

@ismynamefornow @alwaystobehere1 @EvertonLiam79 @CityFanTVMCFC @SocialistHB @elizabe30042418 @TravelodgeUK My Glaswegian Dad says "ya tube". But Delboy surely wears the crown "you plonker"?

[Stuart Melvin @UnionStu]

@iainrae68 @danton_phil @griffics_play Interesting idea... 🤔

[Stuart Melvin @UnionStu]

@Aspartame691 @cashandcarrots @Simonadams39 @griffics_play @AssaadRazzouk Bless how bitter you are my dude, it's adorable. Go have a takeaway and watch some nice telly 😘

[Stuart Melvin @UnionStu]

@MarkCranfield_ Am I following rightly: you're saying "stop fighting climate change" and "start fighting for adaptation/protection"?

[Stuart Melvin @UnionStu]

@Aspartame691 @cashandcarrots @Simonadams39 @griffics_play @AssaadRazzouk I wanted to be a carpenter but the college course got cancelled. Now thems the skills I got. What do you do?

[Stuart Melvin @UnionStu]

@Aspartame691 @cashandcarrots @Simonadams39 @griffics_play @AssaadRazzouk Not that I need to justify myself to you lol but for others reading: I grew up working class, left school at 16, worked min wage jobs in retail/logistics, was (am) a trade union activist. That led me into being a union organiser and that led me into being a climate organiser

[Stuart Melvin @UnionStu]

@cashandcarrots @Aspartame691 @Simonadams39 @griffics_play @AssaadRazzouk I work for one of the big green NGOs so yeah I do know all that thanks. Pension divestment/reinvestment is huge. Pension aside though I don't have a penny at the end of the month lol. I don't do the stuff above but I also don't think it's clearly "bad". More nuanced than that.
