SHOUT THIS FROM THE ROOFTOPS

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

"The reason we've got a housing crisis is Thatchers RTB.. what we need.. is not housing to help people get on a ladder, we need lifelong assured tenancies in council properties that are run by the council & pay for themselves". Bonnie Craven (Sutton & Cheam CLP) is spot on #Lab21

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

"Picturesque river polluted with sewage just 13 days after being given official bathing status."

Yep the River Avon at Salisbury was designated as a bathing spot on 15th May and just 13 days later on the 28th the EA have to issue a pollution warning due to E. coli levels. What a shambles.

Sainsbury's boss eyes bumper £7.3m payday as shoppers reel from higher food prices.

Up from £5.4m last year – 200 times average employee pay.

Govts preach pay restraint to workers, silence on exec pay, shareholder returns.

Let workers vote on exec pay.

[National Secular Society @NatSecSoc]

We've urged Nottinghamshire County Council to end faith school transport policies which privilege families based on religion - and undermine equality, fairness, and ultimately social cohesion.

Yet more unbearable grief.
The war crimes & sheer barbaric inhumanity of the Israeli leadership continues unabated.
What’s it going to take for the UK to fulfil its legal, moral and historical obligations to the Palestinian people by imposing comprehensive sanctions on Israel?

[Richard Sanders @PulaRJS]

The wonderful Miriam Margolyes, Michael Rosen and Alexei Sayle sat down with @DoubleDownNews to talk about what being Jewish means to them.

Enjoy - and plse share.

[Scott Greenfield @ScottGreenfield]

A disgrace to the memory of the men and women who gave their lives to win World War II.

[Save Our Citizenships 🔻 @LetsStopC9]

Jeffrey Sachs exposes the grotesque farce of our age: Israel massacres civilians with U.S. backing, while the complicit applaud and the victims alone are condemned.

One day, history will ask what side you were on. You won't be able to say, 'I didn't know.'

[Communist Party ☭ @CPBritain]

James Connolly was born into the crushing poverty of the Edinburgh slums to Irish parents. He spent his life proving that the working class has no country but the one they build for themselves. He was a trade unionist who did more than talk about solidarity. He organised the Irish Citizen Army to protect workers from the batons of the bosses and the police during the 1913 Lockout.

He understood that a change in the colour of a flag means nothing if the same landlords and capitalists are still pulling the strings. In 1916, he led the Easter Rising to break the back of British imperialism and the systemic greed that sustained it. He knew that national freedom without economic freedom was just a different form of slavery.

The British state showed its true face in his murder. Connolly was so shattered by wounds from the fighting that he could not stand to face the firing squad. They took him to Kilmainham Gaol, tied him to a chair, and shot him.

They killed the man but they could not kill the truth he left us. We do not celebrate him as a statue or a relic of the past. We celebrate him by continuing the fight for a world where the wealth belongs to those who create it. Our demands remain moderate. We only want the earth.

[Guillaume Long @GuillaumeLong]

If what you mean is that while your party and country were supporting apartheid in South Africa, Cuba was fighting and defeating its white supremacist army, well... you're right. Cuba, unlike the U.S., has been on the right side of anti-colonial and national liberation struggles.

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Banned from holding this discussion live in London (presumably for demonstrating Insufficient Support of Genocide!), Hasan Piker & Yanis Varoufakis in conversation on free speech, antisemitism, zionism and the sorry state of liberal democracy. https://t.co/f0QWp6xY0y

[The Daily Britain @dailybritainonx]

MP attendance petition hits 10,000. No legal minimum attendance requirement exists. Same week Farage's 77 consecutive missed votes were revealed - bottom 8% of all MPs, worst in Reform. £100,000 salary.

Should Parliament have statutory attendance rules? 👇

[Dr Jenny Thatcher @JennyAThatcher]

There's nothing more dangerous to the working classes than the 'good will' of the middle class.

[Frank Place 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @BotFinderUK]

A girl steals baby formula from a shop and goes to jail.
Michelle Mone steals £200m and nothing happens.
THAT'S two tier justice...

[Stop the War Coalition @STWuk]

Lower your Guns – Raise our Wages – Say No to War!

With the Generals on the media warning that Britain is facing its 'most dangerous period' since the Cold War, the International Anti-War conference could not be happening at a more prescient time.

[Miners Strike @Miners_Strike]

#OnThisDay 1984. The Daily Mirror published confidential letters that reveal Margaret Thatcher had urged a settlement in British Rail pay negotiations so to isolate striking miners.

The revelations came after Thatcher had previously denied any involvement in the #MinersStrike

[Clive Lewis MP @labourlewis]

Water campaigners are winning the argument for public ownership.

Water today - housing, energy, public transport, data, education, health & social care tomw.

The essential foundations of our economy must be run in the public’s interest, not profitable interest.
