This is the answer to Trump & his corporate buddies. 4,000 workers mainly migrants. Work conditions appalling. Pay very poor but start strike & fight back. They have a big rally tomorrow. Watch video, look them out, give your support. When fighting back in the U.S. right now, they fight for us all.

America's biggest meatpacking strike in decades began today in Greeley, Colorado. @marcsallinger.bsky.social went to the picket lines to hear the demands from JBS workers.

At the core of any fight against Reform and promotes migrant & workers rights has to be the organised labour movement. That has to include union and Labour activists. We need to Restore Labour Democracy to do that. Sign up

John McDonnell MP@johnmcdonnellmp.bsky.social

Labour coming third in Gorton & Denton was the result of a leadership that ignores members on the policies we need and denies them a real choice of candidate. I’ve joined trade union leaders, MPs & others to demand: Restore Labour Democracy. Sign here👇 tinyurl.com/RestoreLabou...

An absolute disgrace of a campaign run by Labour in Gorton & Denton. That alone is a reason why major heads must roll. The Labour Party can no longer silence dissent. It must listen to its left MP critics and talk with those like the Greens and fight Reform UK.

Hopefully action will now happen against Mandelson as well as Andrew, not exposing just the inequalities of noble birth but the everyday collusion of the super-rich to which Epstein made himself a hub. But around Epstein, all the networks of ruling class power

The mutual back-scratching of Mandelson’s ‘super-rich’. Their family social connections. ‘Old boys’ networks of private schools. Inside knowledge shared on investment ‘opportunities’. Hidden from view but leading to fortunes, perks and privileges, luxury yachts, jets and islands. Epstein’s world.

It’s the 120th anniversary of the adoption of the name the Labour Party. Today, there’s a growing call across the Labour & trade union movement about the need to restore democracy & members’ rights in the Party. If you agree, sign up to the statement in this video.

The inquiry into Mandelson’s appointment must continue. It is not only his relationship with Epstein that has done damage but also the UK gov’s relationship with Trump which he led on. No more grovelling! Support US workers and migrants not their fascist POTUS www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c7...

Letter: Will Roberts is right to call for Palestine Action’s proscription to be lifted, and to celebrate that the prisoners stopped short of dying. But we should not overstate the effectiveness of their actions either. workersliberty.org/story/2026-0...

Thank you Pep Guardiola for using your platform. Governments killing, displacing and dehumanising millions across the world want to make us think it's normal. But Guardiola is right. We can't look away. And we cannot accept it.

VP Vance had initially joked about the day’s events where Musk had called for Trump to be replaced by him - needing 2/3 of Congress. 3 hours later (midnight in Washington) Vance is compelled to stand by Trump. It would be good to know of the exchange between Trump and his VP in those three hours.

The bodies of two hostages, Gadi Haggai and Judi Weinstein-Haggai, have finally been returned to Israel for burial after more than 600 days. The couple was murdered in their kibbutz, Nir Oz, on October 7th. (1/3)

A large group of Israeli settlers unleashed yesterday a terror attack on the Palestinian village of Deir Dibwan, east of Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank. They assaulted residents, set fire to homes, agricultural fields, cars, and livestock shelters, including sheep pens and horse stables.(1/3)

Alaa Abd el-Fattah continues to be held unlawfully. His mother, Leila Soueif, is on hunger strike and may soon die. The government must act urgently for Alaa's immediate release, with concrete pressure on the Egyptian government and through the International Court of Justice.

On Tuesday, a letter signed by over 1300 academics was sent to the heads of Israel’s academic system, calling for an end to the war, warning of "moral collapse" across the country. The tide is changing in Israel against the Govt and its war of annihilation. #CeasefireNow #ReleasetheHostages

Weekly vigils in Nottingham & Barnet are growing in size and welcome. Our message of solidarity with an alternative to war, hatred and inequality, must win. There is only one 'side', that of peace, justice & freedom for all and we will never stop saying or believing it. #permanentceasefire

Support the CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE & DISRUPTION NEAR THE GAZA BORDER that started tonight. Hundreds of anti-war activists from Israel try to block the roads leading the army into Gaza.

RIGHT NOW: Hundreds of people, Jews and Palestinians, are marching towards the Gaza border calling to stop the Israeli government’s horrific plans of occupation, settlement, killing, and population transfer in Gaza. We’re here because we refuse this catastrophe. We refuse to stand by.

Tax the super-rich and multinational corporations. Scrap the disability benefit cuts and the two child limit. End austerity. Put money in people’s pockets. Work together to build a fairer, healthier, and more equal society. This is the programme we need. [3/3]

The Israeli government is starving Gaza's entire population. It has now announced plans to invade and occupy the whole strip, forcing further displacement. What additional proof is needed that this is genocide? Why isn’t our government doing everything it can to stop this?

And in Nottingham at the FoST vigil Jon spoke on the continual need to speak out and protest at the violence in Israel-Palestine, practise basic human empathy to mourn all victims of this armed atrocity and stand in solidarity with Palestinians & Israelis building a future together.

Bassetlaw Lab MP Jo White said govt should stop “pussyfooting around” and “take a leaf out of President Trump’s book” to reduce immigration! Such hateful views not new for Bassetlaw Lab MPs and only helped Reform surge there last week while Lab vote collapsed. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Anyone doubt that Reform in power would be as bad as Trump? Reform’s Gtr Lincs Mayor Andrea Jenkins pledges to make migrants sleep in tents, saying if sleeping under canvas is “good enough for France, they should be good enough for here in Britain.” From articles.globalplayer.com/2GXq1o7Q7LKi...

Waiting the reaction - ‘rigged election’? ‘Fake news that POTUS wanted Conservative victory’? Liberal win in Canada is not a victory for political radicalism or necessarily internationalism but it is a humiliation for Trump and that at least is entertaining. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr...
