Good turnout today for Unite for Energy for All campaign, demanding energy justice for millions of people in the budget and beyond. Plenty of campaign postcards signed, march to BBC with coffin, undertaker and drum grabbed people's attention. Leaflets given out on way. Thx all.

Leeds constituency fuel poverty figures are shocking! Will Gvt act on Budget Day to remedy this? Join us & Medact at our stall from 11.30am Wednesday 6th March by Leeds Bus Station (John Lewis end), then march to the BBC behind a mock coffin to symbolise deaths from cold homes.

The Government are pitting the fight for fair pay against migrant workers yet again. We must stand together against their attempts to divide us and oppose plans to increase NHS charges for migrants! ✊🏼

A HUGE victory for the outsourced essential workers at @NHSBartsHealth in their fight for fair pay and contracts.
Further proof that the tide is turning on outsourcing across the NHS.
Congratulations to the workers who fought so hard for this & thanks to all who supported!
Major victory for outsourced NHS workers at Barts!
Unite has struck a landmark agreement with one of the UK’s largest NHS trusts to bring 1,800 NHS workers employed by the outsourcer Serco into NHS employment. #UniteWIN

COP President @AlokSharma_RDG will have us believe that we’re making good progress, but we’re still on track to a 2.4 degree world.
What part of 1.5 to stay alive are you not hearing?
