I want to send my #solidarity to all our members, stewards and officers fighting disgraceful attacks on workers pay and conditions - while we fight to outlaw it #FireAndRehire needs a confident, well organised industrial response to defeat it! ⁦@unitetheunion⁩

The @CommonsSpeaker is considering a request from practically every opposition leader to hold an inquiry into PM’s lying Now is the time to ask your MP to write to the Speaker & request he allow it. It’s the Speakers job to uphold integrity in the House theguardian.com/politics/202…

Call me old fashioned but I think the smoking gun is *not* whether Boris Johnson did or did not say “let the bodies pile high in their thousands” - it’s that he did, in fact, let the bodies pile high in their thousands

The delay to the #PoliceCrackdownBill shows how much the pressure the Government is under. We need to build a massive campaign - on this bill and against the Tories' wider creeping authoritarianism.

I’m hearing Scottish Conservatives saying if first minister does not resign by Tuesday, they will seek to hold a vote of no confidence. Imagine their outrage when they discover Boris Johnson has misled Parliament practically every week since he became PM👇

I will be voting against the Police Crime and Sentencing Bill in Parliament. The last thing the Police need is more powers at this time.

SO pleased to read that Labour are now voting against the #policebill But, it’s really concerning that it took yesterday’s brutality to force the leadership into this u turn.

The Government has announced two new "mega-laboratories". These privately-run labs will run parallel to NHS-based diagnostic services, with profits put before people. This is one of the many ways the Tories are privatising the NHS by stealth.
