Today is Workers Memorial Day when we remember our dead and continue our fight of the living. I was pleased to be with my fellow UNISON members just now by our bench in Southampton's East Park. Solidarity.

It looks like the residents in Arthur Road and Stafford Road in Freemantle (Southampton) have some extra company to help with their Beltane celebrations. BTW the Green Man is voting Labour in tomorrow's council elections.

Here I am just now outside the Southampton Central Library and the plaque commemorating the City's support for the Basque child refugees fleeing the horrors of the Spanish Civil war 85 years ago. No Pasaran!

Unison's #undc22 has the chance to debate PR this week - and to join the 80% of Labour members and six affiliated unions who support electoral reform. If you're a delegate, please ask your region to re-prioritise Motion 102: Proportional Representation.

In response to today's march Boris Johnson stated that unemployment is at a record low: that's not the point, " in work poverty" should never exist in a rich country. The Tories simply don't care

New Education Minister, gives a middle finger salute to members of the public outside Downing Street. If there is one image that captures everything that is wrong with this Government- it’s this.

The Tories decided to use your money fixing private roads in our wealthiest area, while closing a leisure centre in our poorest communities. Your new Labour Council want to level up our city and have reversed this decision today! Southampton labour delivering on our promise🌹

Nothing will change, if anything it'll get worse. Truss has been in the Tory gov't that's trashed our communities, economy, security and global reputation for 12 years. Truss backed Johnson to the last, so will continue to bluster, mislead, protect the rich and kick the poorest.

High traffic volumes are expected in the city this weekend due to several cruise departures and football at St Marys Stadium. Please plan any journeys to the City Centre or the waterfront in advance as it will be busy.

Great to officially launch Southampton’s Park and Ride on the west of the city today - huge thanks to everyone involved that made this possible. Over 1000 parking spaces here, to help make it easier and quicker to travel to and from Southampton General Hospital and into our city

Can someone help me please? I can't understand why all those Conservative MPs who resist growing calls for a General Election voted to repeal the Fixed Term Parliament Act which set in legislation a general election every five years.
