"Entitled, hubristic, oblivious to the carnage it causes, underpinned by wildlife crime, and seemingly living in a parallel world where wildlife is nothing more than a cash cow."

Who gets the right to disagree at UCL?

Yesterday, IWGB members and supporters at UCL confronted UCL Provost Michael Spence at his event, titled "How to Disagree Well"

We highlighted the silencing of security guards over proposed fire-and-rehire redundancies.

@WillGroveWhite Nice. Good to see you enjoying making ukuleles. I hope to get back to making one day.

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

This is outrageous behavior by @RishiSunak’s Government! It’s going to launch a legal challenge over the Covid inquiry's demand for WhatsApp messages & documents.

If you think this Government is an absolute piece of crap RT this widely

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

We built the NHS to provide free, public healthcare for all.

We will not save our health service by desecrating the principles on which it was founded.

Healthcare is a human right, not a commodity. End outsourcing, reverse privatisation, and invest in a fully public NHS.

The real truth is that the FA got off scot free from facing any responsibility for events leading up to the Hillsborough Disaster. There is a difference between truth and appeasement. There should be no place for revisionism in a Truth and Legacy Project. #accountability

Those of us who have been paying attention know this man is authoritarian. Of course he doesn’t want to repeal it.
Wake up! He’s a bloody danger!

2 yrs ago today,

my daughter had open heart surgery.

She was 5.

As a paediatrician, I felt helpless

As a mum, I was terrified.

One thing happened that day, one thing the anaesthetic team did that I will never forget... 👇🧵

Scummy Avon Vale got a telling off, hounds trespassing in peoples gardens, on the scent of a fox. But still @wiltshirepolice let them carry on! Imagine catching a burglar mid burglary and letting them carry on. Unbelievable. Full hit report to follow https://t.co/f3y9fxkBTM

This ‘Unions vs the people’ narrative is nonsense. The Unions ARE the people.

Union leaders work for their members, not the other way around.

[GET A GRIP @docrussjackson]

Threatening to sack teachers & nurses for striking is fascism.

[Taj Ali @Taj_Ali1]

🚨NEW: Statement from @TheBMA:

"This Government has failed to ensure minimum standards of patient care in the NHS for many months, if not years. It is laughable they are now attempting to bring in anti-worker legislation under the false pretence of improving patient safety."

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

BREAKING🚨| The government has announced anti-strike legislation.

When workers democratically vote to strike, they can be forced to work and sacked if they don’t. This is wrong, unworkable, and almost certainly illegal.

[RedHerring @CoastKerry]

I would urge people not to eat at #PiedATerre @PiedaTerreUK - as it's owner thinks that working people should be fired for standing up for their rights.

I wouldn't want to eat somewhere where the owners think this.
