The same tactics are used for every story they print. They don't care about people or the affect they have on them. Don't wait until it directly affects you before you act. Stop funding this rag and let it die once and for all.

[Hampton Institute @HamptonThink]

Capitalists privatized land & took away our ability to self-sustain, our ability to build healthy families & communities, our ability to survive & thrive together.. so they could transform us into *human resources* who are coerced to sell ourselves to them in exchange for a wage.

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

@Douglas4Moray Hope you'll now put the same effort into pressuring your own leadership to do the same for young people in England and Wales.

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

Imagine what working class people could achieve generally if not for the oppressive capitalist system you champion.

[Scottish Conservatives @ScotTories]

👇Imagine what we could have achieved if education really was Nicola Sturgeon's number one priority, rather than just a soundbite.

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

It's a disgrace that these people who have upheld the class system for generations and will continue to do so for as long as they can, have hijacked the young people's movement. We hope the majority see through them and continue to build without interference from these vultures.

[Douglas Ross @Douglas4Moray]

Spoke to some brilliant young people today from Glasgow. They fear that downgraded exam results will blight their futures. Their hard work deserves so much better than this. #SQAResultsFiasco #SQAResults

@Nigel_Farage Time to throw you in

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

Are they wanting a slot on @bbccomedy?

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

If you doubt the answer is "the vast majority" then spend some time with working class people in a working class area and see for yourself. This is nothing more than propaganda because they realise the tide is finally (and rightly) turning against them.

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

How many were in self defense? How many were a result of verbal and physical provocation? How many were during and illegal stop/part of ongoing harrasment? How many were simply made up to give leverage at court to get an early plea for something else?i

[Police Scotland @PoliceScotland]

Between April and June 2020 there were over 1,775 reported assaults on our officers and staff. Aggressive or threatening behaviour, or verbal abuse towards officers & staff is an offence & may result in your arrest.

This from the party who turned constitutional debate into sectarian conflict just to win a few seats. Let's see you defend your policies that have killed hundreds of thousands.

[Scottish Conservatives @ScotTories]

- @Douglas4Moray

It suits the SNP to talk about the constitutional because it means they're not being made to defend their appalling record in government.

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

Get along and support this if you can.

@ScotTories @Douglas4Moray That was a quick coronation. Maybe you can have a word now about your bosses putting every woman working at Westminster at risk by refusing to suspend an alleged rapist?

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

How are overburdened teachers going to prepare these appeals as well as trying to make schools as safe as possible in unprecedented times? How are pupils going to get an appeal back and submitted to uni before starting next month? Why do already underprivileged children have to?

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

Credible figures matter more than young people's futures? Are they just ensuring they have enough people going into the job market without the qualifications behind them to demand proper pay and conditions in the crash to come?

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

“Can you look a young person from those most deprived backgrounds in the eye today and say this system is fair?”

@C4Ciaran asks Nicola Sturgeon about the disparity between the exam results of pupils from deprived areas and those from wealthier ones.

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

@Douglas4Moray Just like you're ignoring rape allegations in your party?

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

Rapists and paedophiles in the @Conservatives and wider British elite come as no surprise anymore, but how it has been covered up and ignored by @Jacob_Rees_Mogg, the media and the rest of the party shows how untouchable they feel. We all bear responsibity for that.

#ToryRapist

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

Question everything.

[The Working Class @WorkingClass_20]

Still waiting for next leader of the @ScotTories, @Douglas4Moray, or any of them for that matter to comment on their party defending rapists. Maybe @Jackson_Carlaw, @ProfTomkins or @AnnieWellsMSP who usually have too much to say for themselves?

Proportion of salary covered by sick pay

🇩🇪 100%
🇧🇪 93%
🇸🇪 64%
🇳🇱 56%
🇪🇸 42%
🇬🇧 29%

Statutory sick pay in the UK is just £95.85/wk - and 2 million don’t earn enough to qualify.

People can’t afford to self-isolate on that. They need #SickPayForAll that meets the cost of living.
