Racists have always lost. The Confederacy lost. The KKK lost. Segregationists lost. Apartheid South Africa lost. Racists are fearful and paranoid. They will always lose.

In Communism you run the economy for maximum production to share its 'profits' among everybody. In Capitalism you run the economy for maximum profit for a handful of individuals. Capitalism can NEVER compete with Communism, it is horribly inefficient and greedy.

Defending existing agreements isn’t greed. Demanding more driving hours while calling it “modernisation” might be, though.

If you need a reason to join a trade union this is it. Organise in your workplace and win real change. ( it also really pisses off clowns like this) win win!
Train drivers can earn £75k a year base salary (plus extras) and their employer pays 20-22% into their cushy DB pension that they can take in full at age 60. And they're going on strike? They don't know how good they've got it.

We need an honest debate about welfare, not one built on myths and misinformation. The repeated claim that people receive PIP for mild anxiety simply isn't true. PIP is assessed on someone's ability to carry out everyday tasks, not on their condition or diagnosis.

Apply for a job with London Underground. Put in the years in a customer-facing role. Apply for a driver’s job when a vacancy arises. Pass the assessments, pass the exams, and acquire the route knowledge 🔥
How do I become a Tube Driver? £76k a year, not a customer facing role 🔥

Hunting is cruel and should have no place in modern Britain. Yet, twenty years after the Hunting Act, trail hunting continues to be used as a cover for illegal hunts. I've signed a letter to the Prime Minister and written to the Environment Secretary calling for a ban on trail hunting, tougher enforcement, and for the Hunting Act to be strengthened by closing loopholes and ending exemptions that allow hunts to continue. It's time to close the loopholes and strengthen the law once and for all.

We just learned Idaho paid hunters $2,000 for every newborn wolf pup they killed. Meanwhile, Trump is working to weaken the Endangered Species Act, putting imperiled wildlife at even greater risk. This is an abomination. There’s no undoing extinction. bit.ly/4z9sYBg

We do not need Andy Burnham’s permission to investigate Britain’s role in Israel’s genocide in Gaza. He refused an inquiry. 80,000 people answered him in thirteen days. Truth does not need the Prime Minister’s signature. It needs 100,000 of ours. Sign: petition.parliament.uk/petit…

Care should put people before profit. Yet around 80% of the UK's largest care home providers are owned or backed by private equity. It's time to end profiteering in social care. Agree? Add your name 👇 party.coop/campaign/socialca…

The interest rate hike today will be yet another economic hit to families facing mounting worries. It doesn't have to be this way. Rather than the blunt tool of interest rates we should be responding to inflation by cutting bills, lowering rents and shifting off fossil fuels.

Firework noise limit should be drastically cut to protect wild animals, UK government told @guardian “Research into the impact of fireworks on wild animals has found that birds experience particular harm including stress responses, mass temporary displacement & fatal collisions. On New Year’s Day in 2025, 1,000+ birds were found dead in Bulgaria, just over a kilometre from a site where fireworks had been set off, after panicked birds flew into trees & each other” No firework is worth the abuse & death of animals & wildlife theguardian.com/environment/…

the earliest recorded animal liberation activist was an arab philosopher, poet and writer named abu al-ala al-ma’arri (973–1057 CE) his writings were explicitly aligned with the fundamental principles of what is, in the modern day, referred to as veganism.
