Reinstate The Benton Park View Three!

HMRC management at Benton Park View have dismissed three local PCS reps while another three are facing disciplinary action.

We believe this is a clear case of trade union victimisation

Black people are reporting having to block hundreds & limit replies to tweets about #DianeAbbott. I've done the same for the 1st time as whereas I'm up for contrary views, the vile replies are part of a campaign, orchestrated down to the typos. We've plunged some terrible depths!

[Jacqueline (Jacqui) Mckenzie @JacquiMckenzie6]

Thousands assembled in Hackney earlier in support of #DianeAbbott. During my 20 yrs at Hackney Council, joining the yr Diane became an MP, I saw how hard she worked to build bridges across communities. Tonight's turn out was a testimony to this, & I was honoured to be a speaker.
