Tomorrow 115,000 postal workers take their 13th day of strike action to defend their jobs and the service they provide to you.
They are up against an aggressive and out of control employer.
Now more than ever they need you.

Nurses’ fight is our fight.
Posties’ fight is our fight.
Rail workers’ fight is our fight.
Teachers’ fight is our fight.
Firefighters’ fight is our fight.
We are all fighting the same fight. Pay staff a proper wage. Treat workers properly.
No asylum seeker ever made £29m from dodgy PPE, illegally fired an entire workforce, cut benefits for the disabled or put £500 a month on your mortgage
This is why NHS staff are burning out, leaving, striking, and dying. It's not just about pay. It's about patient care, chronic under-resourcing etc, and this. A broken system, and a broken workforce.
it’s also not just about the pay- a safe ward feels like a rare sight currently due to the lack of nurses. We desperately need our nurses to receive a fair pay for the incredible work they do

seems like labour have completely forgotten the point of their party- to support the workers and unions! Starmer is just a diet tory at this point, bloody useless
So, Mo Farrah. Seeing lots of outrage and, understandably, confusion at the Home Office’s statement that they won’t be investigating him for any offences. The fuck do they mean offences? He was a victim of the trafficking. Well, let’s hear some uncomfortable truths today 🧵
5 years ago 72 people died because they were trapped in a government mandated death trap. 5 years later and we can’t forget their names. We must continue to fight for justice for them and their families. 💚💚✊🏾 #Justice4Grenfell
