Remember how we tried to point out that Austerity was a really stupid idea that would ruin public services in this country and make the rich richer? And remember how the police violently attacked us for it? This is small consolation for the damage done theguardian.com/uk-news/2023…

But it's good to see a small bit of accountability for the police. Well done Alfie Meadows for sticking with it.

Who's going to pay compensation for the political class and the super-rich trying to beat the life out of the entire country?

French workers and unions showing us the way! For the 6th time since the start of the year, unions have called a nationwide day of strikes and demos aiming to repeat the large turnout seen previously on 19th Jan, when more than a million people marched against pension changes.

Always remember you have far more in common with striking nurses, railway workers, and postal workers than with the political and media classes telling you those people are your enemy.

I’m an NHS doctor I support NHS #NursesStrike They have one of the most trusted roles in society and yet are paid a pittance This government should be ashamed that whilst they sip on their subsidised beers, nurses need to use food banks #FairPayforNursing #DoctorsForNurses

Love, respect and solidarity to the nurses on strike. The Conservatives are trashing our NHS so they can sell it off on the cheap to their mates in the City. Nurses are fighting to save our NHS. Fight with them.

"Everybody is at the end of their tether... because this health service is being crushed so that they can get it ready for privatisation" Mick Lynch from the @RMTunion is spot on. The Tories have been deliberately underfunding, understaffing & under resourcing the NHS for years.

I’m really sick of the media referring to ‘the unions’ as if they are a separate entity to the millions of working people that they represent. ‘The unions’ are not orchestrating strikes, workers are standing up and fighting to save the services they provide.
