A powerful statement for Bogdan’s freedom.
Will Lehman | WillforUAWpresident.org
@WillforUAWpresSep 6
Bogdan Syrotiuk, a 27-year-old socialist, got 15 years in a Ukrainian prison for writing that Russian and Ukrainian workers have no reason to kill each other. I demand his immediate, unconditional release. So should every UAW member. Sign the petition. Link in comments.

A critical intervention into the NZ election:
Socialist Equality Group NZ
@SEGNewZealandOct 22
SEG candidate Tom Petterson speaking at yesterday's nationwide strike by 8,000 university and polytech staff. The TEU has a long record of imposing sellout agreements, and in 2022 the union leadership openly boasted of pushing through wage cuts. The last Labour government - which the unions are promoting in the #NZelection - cut hundreds of positions at universities and polytechs. To carry out a real fight, workers must build rank-and-file committees that they control. #nzpolitics #nzpol Support the Socialist Equality Group's campaign and attend our public meeting on November 1 at 1:30pm in the Dowse Art Museum, Lower Hutt: forms.gle/jv3UWNotDacB9MxAA
