Boomers and Gen Z have something they want to say to the Conservative government.

Inflation today is driven by monopolistic supply, not excess demand. Energy, food and more. The whole discussion about interest rates ignores that. Go after the source (anti-monopoly, and the multiple causes of “excess” profits ie “rents”). Isabella M. Weber very good on this.

The labor movement is the largest organization of working women in the country. I was delighted to chat with Emma Cordover at POLITICO about how women are changing our movement! Take a look. politico.com/newsletters/wo…

“The scale of work that’s coming and the scale of investments, we’ve never seen anything like it.” -NABTU President Sean McGarvey at the United for Infrastructure Conference.

Waiting lists, dental care, mental health services, clinical trials, workforce morale, cancer care, innovative treatments, Tories have failed our NHS on every measure

I asked the Minister if she really thought people should be voting for five more year of Tory  #NHS  failure

I appreciate the recognition by @Washingtonian for fighting for America’s workers. That’s why I urge the magazine’s management: negotiate a fair contract with your staff union, @washguild. Use your own influence to help your staff earn a living wage. washingtonian.com/2024/05/02/was…

I grew up working class. I’ve been fighting all my life.

As Prime Minister, I’ll fight for you.

Finally, we have the chance to elect a Labour Government and deliver a better, brighter future for the people of Newcastle Central and West.

Our city is crying out for change - and only Keir Starmer's Labour Party can deliver it. Lets do this. Let's get Britain's future back!

The partisan House #FarmBill has poison pills that attack workers & push more people below the poverty line with harmful cuts to food programs. We urge Congress to stand up for millions of vulnerable Americans, especially children, & reject or dramatically fix the bill at markup.

Unions give a voice to working people on the job to fight for safer working conditions. That’s especially important in a hospital, where our working conditions are patients’ recovery conditions. AFT Healthcare aft.org/hc/spring2024/…
