🔥 Another WIN!
Notting Hill Genesis forced our members to live for years in UNSAFE conditions, so we took the power of the union to their doorstep.
Straight away they committed to start vital repairs TOMORROW and meet with the LRU in January to discuss our other demands!

💸Average rent in London is £2500.
💸Average monthly pay in London is £2100.
Many of us pay more than half of our incomes on housing and live in poverty while landlords make big profits on their assets. It’s not simply unaffordable, it’s exploitative.
We need rent controls NOW

Today we marched through London to mark the 75th anniversary of the Nakba and speak out against the ongoing dispossession of the Palestinian people.
End the occupation. Free Palestine.

A people poisoned by the adulation of royalty can never attain social freedom. The mind accustomed to political kings can easily be reconciled to social kings – capitalist kings of the workshop, the mill, the railway, the ships and the docks.

This crosses a line. We don't support the tories and the government using anti trade unions laws against another union, full stop.

We're outside the Israeli Embassy in London to condemn Israel's barbaric violence against Palestinians at the Al-Aqsa mosque, in Gaza and across occupied Palestine.
Solidarity with Palestinian resistance.
Today, as always.

Labour is essentially now running as the party of the state bureaucracy. Led by the former Director of Public Prosecutions with a Shadow Chancellor who was a Bank of England economist, and now Sue Gray, Second Secretary to the Cabinet Office, is Starmer’s chief of staff.

🚨🚨🚨Eviction resisted! 🚨🚨🚨
Four years after the tories promised to abolish Section 21, renters like Daniel are still waiting for the security we ALL deserve.
Until the government protects our rights, we will continue to defend one another from eviction and homelessness.
