Great meeting in Coventry yesterday ahead of the local elections, in support of the Your Party, TUSC and Socialist Independents slate. They represent the best of our movement: principled, hardworking, and deeply rooted in our communities. They’ll fight for social housing, real climate action, and free school meals for every child. If you want politics done differently, vote for them ✊🏽

Corbyn & Gorst signed this in Oct: “For Your Party to be built as a mass workers' party based on trade union organisations, with socialist organisations—like the Socialist Party—allowed to affiliate.” TUs should start their own Party! Vote for below fighters in Unite elections!

For proof I tell no lies, see these photo’s. Both were told the content of the petitions, both carefully read things and agreed to sign. Zarah signed first, then Jeremy shortly after.

A new, activist twist on neighborhood watch is taking shape in Minneapolis and other cities under occupation by federal immigration agents: ICE Watch. These ICE watchers are passionate, determined, and just about everywhere—and ICE is getting frustrated. motherjones.com/politics/202…

Dave, you supported my family and me when I was in prison for being part of the successful Militant led mass opposition to the Poll Tax. Your socialist and trade union credentials are sound. I recommend you to members of Your Party✊🏻

Amazon must temporarily close their Coventry warehouse after a TB outbreak. Preventing a major outbreak is more important than Amazon's profit margins. Workers must be put onto full sick pay.

NEW: Tyson’s is about to fire 50% of Lexington, Nebraska's workforce in one of the largest plant closures in decades. We talked to experts, workers and local residents who have a radical idea to save American beef production: government takeover of the plant.

More bad press for @Clarion_Group, but shameless in their lies. It's time that govt held them to account. Housing associations are basically left to mark their own homework, and it is causing misery and poverty! #EndServiceChargeAbuse

@SHAC_ActionJan 17
Thx @BBCSurrey and @JamesCannon66 for exposing Clarion's lies about overcharging - we have the evidence. They are one of the biggest housing associations in the country, meaning the government is hesitant to challenge them. Listen to them lie: youtube.com/watch?v=f3L3DCMl… We need root and branch change to #endservicechargeabuse
