The truth is that corporate profiteering is out of control. CEOs are hiking prices while shareholders rub their hands and workers struggle to make ends meet.

Unite makes absolutely no apologies for demanding that employers that can pay, do pay. Wage restraint, absolutely not!

[Sharon Graham @UniteSharon]

📢Unite Win - pay rise worth 15.8 percent!

This inflation-busting pay rise at Stagecoach in Worthing is Unite in action, delivering for our members and helping them through this cost-of-living crisis by getting more money into their pockets.

So just to be clear, the Editor in Chief of a paper that has failed to report on anything that makes the PM look bad, has now been awarded a Peerage - he will be a Lord - by the same PM?

Kiss the ring and be rewarded!

I guess it’s not the 1970s, it’s the 1700s!

Reminder: The man who says rail workers, nurses and teachers don't deserve a fair pay rise just blew £100k of their taxes on someone to take his picture... https://t.co/tS4dT2xLBO

@BillyVacant @RickJon78125320 BT Group PLC reported its revenue for fiscal 2022 was 20.85 billion pounds ($25.54 billion) compared with GBP21. 33 billion a year earlier.(12 May 2022).
Boss Philip Jansen made £2,628,000 in 2021.
They can afford to give the staff a pay rise.

Simon Walters says he stands "100%" by his story about Boris Johnson and Carrie that was mysteriously pulled by the Times. https://t.co/fIOtaBNYHR

"We have to fight this, because we havn't had any pay rises, we're faced with thousands of job cuts, & they want to rip up our terms/conditions in a form of fire & rehire". Mick Lynch from the @RMTunion was excellent on #Ridge today. Solidarity with everyone on strike next week✊🏽

[Normal Island News @NormalIslandNws]

BREAKING: A Conservative peer agreed to "open doors" at the top of government for a Covid firm in exchange for £3,000 a month. I, for one, am glad to know that even though our Covid response was shit and everyone died, at least a bunch of rich old bastards got a bit richer x

It was the tory candidate you muppet 🤣🤣🤣🤣

One of the holiest sites that is said to hold the tombs of Prophet Abraham and his family, yet Israeli settlers stormed and desecrated al-Ibrahimi Mosque in Palestine.

[steve thorpe @stevestthorpe]

Probably, join the met and do what you want...
They've been corrupt and unregulated for years..

[Rachael Swindon @Rachael_Swindon]

Bit of a long shot this, but have the Met Police issued advice for men yet?

[Tom London @TomLondon6]

YOU pay tax

GOVT gives £millions every year to monarchy

MONARCHY uses some of that money to fund Prince Andrew's attempts to evade justice for the child rape allegation in respect of which there is credible evidence

NO ONE in politics & MSM calls this out as obviously wrong

[steve thorpe @stevestthorpe]

Luke Akehurst is just a Blairite gobshite..

[Socialist Voice @SocialistVoice]

Luke Akehurst gives his opinion on Andy McDonald quitting Sir Keir Starmer’s Shadow Cabinet

He fails to mention the reason behind Andy’s departure: Labour’s refusal to back unions’ push for a £15-an-hour minimum wage

Unsurprisingly, Akehurst has attacked Andy…

#Lab21 🥀

[Ammar Kazmi 🇵🇸 @AmmarKazmi]

'I've not spoken to @AndyMcDonaldMP yet. But, if it's true that we were arguing against statutory sick pay at the rate of a living wage, then what is the point of the Labour Party?'

—@RLong_Bailey at tonight's @tribunemagazine rally

[steve thorpe @stevestthorpe]

I've voted and campaign for Lab for over 35 yrs, despite not always agreeing with policy.
Not anymore, they no longer resemble the original Labour values.
No difference to Selfservatives where the less fortunate are concerned.
Ps shouldn't Tandy be expelled along with Mandelson?

[Jason @Jasonb66275132]

@Trickyjabs Please get behind the labour party to get rid of the Tories

[steve thorpe @stevestthorpe]

I think the fault lies with Nandy?
Isn't her priority the constituents in Wigan.
The ppl who voted for her and who have a right to expect her full support. They should be the sole priority especially at GE.
Good luck with Islington 🤣🤣

[pam nolan @eviekins50]

@ExasperatedRed @Trickyjabs @JulietB270880 So your plan is Nandy to loose her seat and vote for an independent in islington North so that the Tories will have gained 2 more seats .....giving them an 82 majority at the next GE....

[steve thorpe @stevestthorpe]

Even if you were a little late for that presentation 😂😂

[steve thorpe @stevestthorpe]

Hopefully she will instill organising into the officer core. The old fashioned servicing model needs to go. Power into the hands of elected workers..
