Great to represent @GMBSouthern/@GMB_Equality at #TransPrideBrighton. It's important for Trade Unions and other grassroots community organisations to be involved in fighting for better conditions for Trans & NB people, not just in work but more broadly. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Our picket line at National Coal Mining Museum in #Wakefield sending solidarity greetings to the striking @GMB_union members at @BrightonMuseums. Our country's heritage is worth fighting for! @strike_map @unisonyh @unisontheunion #RoyalPavillion @TUC_NEYH

What I find funniest out of this is the story goes that the defence minister basically said "We must cover ALL the railways in the south coast, the line between Romney and Dymchurch will be our defences!" ...of course no one had told him it was 15 inch gauge.
During WWII the British 6th Battalion of the Somerset Light Infantry operated the miniature train, which was supplied with lighter weapons such as two .55-inch Boys anti-tank rifles and four Lewis guns at Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway (RH&DR) in Kent.🫡

Photos from the @GMBSouthern dispute at the Royal Pavilion Museum Trust yesterday. Shame on the managment who want to degrading our members' terms and conditions. Situation is so bad, even the mice were on strike!

Raymond and other @GMB_union @BrightonMuseums workers began strike action today. They're fighting an employer that wants to destroy their contract & conditions. Don't visit the Royal Pavilion & other museums on strike days. Join the next strike day on 15 April. #StrikeMap

The SSSNB is an opportunity to finally recognise the value of support staff in our schools. That means a stronger voice, investment in training and development, and pay that reflects the job they do and the contribution they make.

People are literally doing looney tunes gags on ICE and we’re supposed to feel really bad about that
🚨 BREAKING: Rioters are now pouring BUCKETS OF WATER right outside the driveway of ICE Minneapolis in order to make agents SLIP AND FALL when they’re attempting to make arrests This is DISGUSTING. These degenerates are getting away with WAY too much.

#OnThisDay in 1855 Eleanor Marx, a co-founder of our union, was born. She was at the forefront of the fight for the 8 hour working day and consistently fought for justice & equality. Today we celebrate all her achievements 👏

I like in a nonfiction book when all the sudden there's a big break for a pictures section. The author's like "oh by the way these are the guys I was telling you about."

This is apocalyptic. For every kilometer of Ukraine’s front line, there are 2,900 kilometers of fiber-optic cable. Thousands of tons of fiber-optic battle waste litter Ukraine, and it will take decades to clean up.

SWP also don't allow dual membership. SWP are classic entryists, who hop on other organised demos and use it as a photo stunt.
The dual party membership vote is solely about whether members of the Socialist Workers Party can be members of Your Party. Most people reference this incident in their objections to SWP dual-membership. As a group they are Sultana-factionalists

Today is Equal Pay Day: the day women effectively stop earning compared to men. We fight inequality wherever we find it. That’s why GMB Union members have launched more than 25 equal pay claims at employers across the UK 👏

I am 100% sure if someone like Mamdani tried to stand as London mayor Labour would block him.
Inspirational campaign and victory for @ZohranKMamdani in NYC. Lessons for progressives the world over.
