The govt is deporting workers because their job got yanked off a visa list? That’s not policy, that’s cruelty. Migrant workers in care, transport + prisons keep this country standing. I’m proud to stand with them. Solidarity with migrant workers.

Changing visa sponsorship rules is wrong but applying them retrospectively to people already here is deeply unfair. You can’t ask people to build their lives under one set of rules, then punish them when the rules suddenly change standard.co.uk/news/london/tu…

Welcome this historic step, now the UK and other states must act to give the Palestinian state and nation their full rights of sovereignty, liberation, security and an immediate end to the genocide.

It was great to be at the unveiling of the Worker's Memorial monument in Falkirk on Saturday afternoon. Thanks to the Falkirk Trades Union Council for organising and to all the speakers for excellent speeches and the wonderful musicians from the Kinneil Brass Band ✊

NEW: Labour's CAC has reversed its decision to block motions on ending the two-child benefit limit. Without an end to the two-child benefit limit, the Government's Child Poverty Strategy is doomed to fail. A statement from Mainstream's Interim Council below👇

Just heard John McDonnell & others who were punished for bravely opposing the cruel 2-child benefit cap may have had the whip restored. If true, I’m glad, child poverty is a political choice, and it’s inhumane to damage life chances with an arbitrary cap

The government is bringing rail franchises into public ownership after 30 years of failed privatisation But to make this a success they also need to 🚄set up Great British Trains to end the rolling stock rip off 🚄stop wasteful competition 🚄create a national railcard to cut

Public rail isn’t just about smoother journeys it’s about affordable fares for passengers and secure jobs for workers. If it works for trains, why not water and energy next?

The attack on a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur is horrific. We must stand firmly against antisemitism and all forms of hatred.
