Wages Not Weapons passes at #TUC2025 - pass it on 📣

As @DrJoGrady @ucu said “Labour tells workers there is no money left for us – for our wages, our services, our industries – yet somehow finds billions to spend on weapons & war.”

Thank you to TUC General Secretary Paul Nowak for stopping by our #TUC25 stall. We discussed his recent visit to Hiroshima and the need to continue educating new generations about the horror of nuclear war

BREAKING: TUC Congress has voted to oppose increases in defence spending.

The trade union movement is clear: Labour must prioritise investment in working people, not endless wars abroad.

Wages, not weapons ✊

"We must advocate for peace not war and for money to be spent on our public services not on weapons."

Thank you to the @NEUnion for supporting the Wages not Weapons motion successfully passed at TUC Congress today.

As the genocide in Gaza continues, SIPRI figures have uncovered exactly which countries are supplying the weapons. The UK may be a small part of this, but we still need to urgently #StopArmingIsrael

[Cut UK Military Spending - Fund Human Need @GCOMS_UK]

The latest figures from SIPRI on global military make for sobering reading. Just look at the social benefits we could have achieved if our governments weren't obsessed with ever more arms.

Solidarity to those who are preparing to join the Scottish National Demonstration today.

Time to send a clear message to our politicians that we won't tolerate continued waste on militarism and war while our societies continue to suffer.

Please join the demo if you are able

A new campaign has been established to challenge the EU's drive to spend an additional 800bn Euro on the military in the coming years. Stop ReArm Europe will no doubt be an important part of this campaign - and you can find out more about their work here https://t.co/Y1Im21zXEz
