Without trade unions & the workers willing to back them with strike action when needed we wouldn’t have • a minimum wage • maternity & paternity rights • pension provision • holiday & sickness entitlements victories which have benefited every single person in this country…

With senior Tories now calling for a policy to leave the ECHR here is a reminder of why joining Russia and Belarus as the only European countries outside the ECHR is a very bad idea

The NHS winter crisis is not just about overflowing hospital corridors and delayed treatments – it’s about the toll it takes on the very people who hold the system together @BigIssue bigissue.com/opinion/nhs-wi…
CPTPP membership is going to be so “amazing” that Rishi Sunak’s government predicted it would grow the economy by a tiny 0.08% (it later emerged that even that may be an overestimate) and that was after 15 years of membership! Contrast that tiny predicted benefit with the OBR…

What anonymous Tufton Street influence has done for UK pensions.
Please join me in supporting this wonderful idea. A statue of Terry in Colwyn Bay. The idea for a statue came from Terry’s friends at Theatr Colwyn in Colwyn Bay. Terry was their first, and only, patron for some time. After we lost him to dementia in January 2020, they…
The ECHR makes it very difficult to simply abolish rights that you have. But without it things like State Pension, Minimum Wage, Sick, Maternity and Holiday Pay can all be removed with a couple of votes. That would make them hundreds of billions of pounds a year.

Well said @EllieChowns - this is a real litmus test to see whether Labour will stand up for civil liberties & human rights & repeal these draconian laws

All politicians' talk about "difficult decisions" is hollow if they refuse to look at rejoining the EU. They are making all of us pay the price for the government being too scared to bite the EU bullet.
NEW: UK snubs EU over rejoining Erasmus exchange scheme… …but Politico finds a majority of the public support rejoining it, with only 15% against. What is this government thinking? Where’s the “change”? politico.eu/article/uk-eu-…
If Starmer’s serious about “rooting out 14 years of Tory rot”, it’ll take more than new management - the country is crying out for a new mindset too. For inspiration & hope. The last thing we need is more austerity - policies like wealth taxes mean we *can* invest in our future
Norway is exactly the place that the UK would be if Margaret Thatcher and privatisation never existed They own Fossil Fuel, we owned BP They own their Water, we did They own Telecoms, we owned BT They own Energy, we owned National Grid Norway is not what could be, it's what was
"During these turbulent times, we must advocate for calm, harmony, and unity within our nation and counteract and show our revulsion at the violence we are witnessing." Read Unite's statement on recent fascist riots: unitetheunion.org/what-we-do/equ…
I applaud the Prime Minister for calling for honesty in politics but if we now face tax hikes & cuts to public services to fill a £20bn black hole in the public finances we must have an honest discussion about the negative impact of Brexit & the role it has played in creating it
There is literally no need at all for Labour to deliver a painful budget in October. There is a massive capacity to increase taxes on wealth. If Labour wanted to borrow they could. And there are people who want good work.
