Today our ballot opens on whether to take industrial action in our #UCUFourFights dispute. We will soon publish a series of blogs covering how each of the four fights is relevant to us at Southampton, starting with casualisation. #VoteYes

[Southampton UCU @SouthamptonUCU]

Our ballot on whether to take industrial action to defend USS opens today. We face huge cuts to the value of our pensions and our employers the ones pushing it through. Find out more at https://t.co/TIkNounjvj #VoteYes #ActionForUSS

@KentMarxist Looks great!
Excellent choice of films too, though, metaphors for class society aside, we definitely don't recommend eating while watching The Platform... 🤢

$16.5 trn has been injected into the global economy over the pandemic. This with calls for a "green new deal" in the US is championed as left wing economic policy. But can these Keynesian ideas save capitalism?

[Soton Marxists - Southampton Marxist Society @SocSoton]

Many lefts have embraced Keynesianism over the years as a more 'reasonable' alternative to revolution. But it offers no solution to today's rotten system
There are no small tweaks to create a 'nicer' capitalism, only the overthrow of the system and the establishment of socialism!

[Josephine Cumbo @JosephineCumbo]

This is a straw poll (and should be treated as such) but the results suggest strong support for industrial action.

Great day at Southampton Pride today where we showed our solidarity on the march.

Rainbow capitalism is still capitalism.

Instead of being a corporate sponsored event, pride should show how working class solidarity can win the fight for LGBT+ equality.🌈 ✊

Keir #Starmer is doubling down in the wake of #Labour’s dismal election results, accelerating the shift to the right. If we want a real ‘change of direction’, we need an urgent change of leadership. #StarmerOut! Fight for socialism! #StarmerMustGo

[Revolutionary Communist Party @revcommunists]

Model motion: No confidence in Keir Starmer!

The disastrous Hartlepool by-election result shows that #Starmer is not fit to lead the #Labour party. Enough with flag-waving and appeals to big business! We need to take on the Tories with socialist policies. #StarmerOut

[Soton Marxists - Southampton Marxist Society @SocSoton]

We'll be attending the Kill the Bill protest tomorrow, 1st May 12pm at Bargate, come and join us if you can to defend the right to organise.
Mass action works, #KilltheBill .

[Southampton UCU @SouthamptonUCU]

South West Hampshire TUC is hosting a socially distanced May Day rally this Saturday, 12pm on Bargate. We don’t have access to our banner at the moment but know our members are great with the DIY banner making, to represent us if they so wish!

[Soton Marxists - Southampton Marxist Society @SocSoton]

This insult typifies the contempt in which the party leadership holds the left - we will not tolerate it
