What a beautiful sharing of community work @Leap_Festival today! My ❤️ was full, special shout out to @MerseyProducers @marianapiresact for their beautiful work with #findingrefuge project
Dear Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's, Lid, Aldi, Waitrose, Morrisons, and all other stores that have self checkout.
You are heading towards almost exclusively self-checkout now.
The lady checking receipts at the exit was stopping
everyone.
I didn't choose to participate in that nonsense, I had already
🛒 filled my cart
🛒 emptied my cart
🛒 scanned the items
🛒refilled my cart
and so I just skipped the exit line and left.
I heard her saying "umm - Excuse me " as I kept walking and raised the receipt above my head, leaving the store.
You can either trust me to do self-checkout, or you can put your cashiers back in place like it used to be.
I'm not interested in proving that I did your job for you.
• If you want me to be a cashier with no training then that's vour problem not mine.
• Keep employing young people and give them job opportunities.
YOU DON'T PAY ME TO SCAN MY OWN SHOPPING.
YOU DON'T GIVE ME STAFF DISCOUNT FOR WORKING FOR YOU.
Signed ....All of us
These are jobs that are needed to have for young and old
No. Sorry. They are not “collateral damage” they are human beings who happen to have been born there and live there and most of those human beings are stuck there. Have some compassion, they are Palestinians not buildings or roads or things, they are human beings and so are the hostages whose lives you may also be destroying. They aren’t “collateral damage” either.

Terrible newspaper column @thetimes today from Rod Liddle, on the reaction from Liverpool supporters being upset with the chants from Luton last Sunday.
It’s strange that he doesn’t mention the Hillsborough tragedy being behind those chants, but writes it off as terrace banter. But you would expect that from him knowing what he’s written in the past & who he still writes for now. Awful journalist.
Also bizarre the sports editor of @thetimes would allow that column to go in his paper 🤬
Farage’s appearance on #ImACeleb from tonight is further proof that the UK isn’t a democracy anymore, it’s a TV show.
They are sending him on, like they sent on Hancock to divert attention from their horrible and damaging politics and to humanise them.
Don’t fall for it.
We've been out on #strike today,the first of 8 days. @LJMU made the decision to take half of our wages for several weeks in April/May and again in July for taking part in the #MAB and refused to engage in any negotiations. We won't be bullied. Out again Tues/Weds. Come join us.
34 years ago I made a commercial with Pepsi to celebrate the release of my song Like a Prayer.
The commercial was immediately canceled when I refused to change any scenes in the video where I was kissing a black saint or burning crosses.
So began my illustrious career as an artist refusing to compromise my artistic integrity.
Thank you @pepsi for finally realizing the genius of our collaboration. 😄
Artists are here to disturb the peace.
This needed to be said!

Thousands of us graduating this year will do so with no mark, no classification….
Due to Universities failing to meet @ucu demands thousands of us will walk across the graduation stage with an empty degree.
So here’s what @SussexGlobal at @SussexUni did.
We protested
