Until becoming PM Burnham supported rent control but now the govt. says it wont even look at rent control. Rent control as emergency measure and mass programme of council house building urgently needed.
New research shows that a third of renters cannot afford food. Socialists demand new controls that cap rents, with levels set by locally elected bodies involving tenants, housing workers, and trade union representatives. politicshome.com/news/articl…

This is spot on.
Blaming every complex problem on [_________ insert minority here] is a cynical tactic as old as the hills ... especially if you don't want voters focussing on the interests of your millionaire leaders and billionaire funders.
Actually having a workable plan to fix our broken system in the real world is another story.

It's wrong that workers at @LBIAirport are paid far less than those doing the same job at another nearby airport. These are essential workers who play a vital role in ensuring the smooth running of the airport and the safety of passengers and deserve fair pay.

My TUC Congress 2026 report.
As a new TUC General Council member, I support Motion 34 and hope it’s implemented in full: a national demonstration against austerity, investment in public services, a united pay campaign and coordinated action if needed.

Emily will say it and say it and say it again.
But she wont do it.
Labour have been in govt for over 2 wasted years. They arent touching vacant properties and they aren't building council houses in significant numbers.
Just performative feelgood crap.

The SNPs attitude towards local Govt has been a disaster. The problem is not too many councils, the problem is two decades of disproportionate cuts, the council tax freeze, failure to reform council funding, centralisation and a loathing of councils and councillors
EXC: Council mergers could be given green light under plans being considered by First Minister John Swinney.

Oppose War in Iran - It's already causing 1000s of deaths, injuries & displacement. It's escalating rapidly. The ripple effect will cause widespread economic hardship, with gas prices soaring by 93% already. As always, the working class will pay while the rich profit.

Nigel Farage is certainly no friend of the working class. A privately educated former banker who moved from trading in the City to trading in fear. The rise of Reform and Restore is down to the non-delivery of Labour. It is now time for Labour to deliver. This latest diversion must not distract from that. 2/2

When I was elected, I promised to take our union #BackToTheWorkplace. To put money back in the pockets of Unite members.

When I was elected I promised to take our Union back to the workplace. Back to its members. No more blank cheques for Labour. The jobs, pay and conditions of our members will always be my first priority. I’m standing for re-election so that we can finish what we started, continue the change to be a union that fights for workers’.

You're perfectly correct and he has now been fired.

Simon Dudley's remarks are a shocking insult to the people who lost their lives at Grenfell and to their families.
The Grenfell Inquiry found the tragic deaths of 72 people, entirely avoidable. To have a senior Reform figure undermine that is unacceptable.

Council workers must no longer be penalised for a crisis not of their making. Austerity is a political choice and the national employers must change tack and invest in frontline public sector workers.
FAIR PAY NOW!

Wake up call for @UKLabour
If Labour needed any further wake up calls - this is clearly one. Labour need to now ditch the gimmicks and get back to being Labour - not new, not one that plays games, but real Labour.
Workers and families are hurting. We have a cost of living crisis largely being ignored and investment in jobs for the here-and-now being blocked by a Treasury that doesn't seem to understand the basics of what is needed to build Britain.
Stop listening your rich mates and start listening to everyday people. -#GortonDentonByElection

.@RachelReevesMP #budget delivered for the bond markets and City bankers, while increasing stealth taxes for millions of workers.
The Treasury seems mesmerised by so-called fiscal rules as British industry is left to wither on the vine and our public services face #austerity.
