Love Organizing for Power. UK Parliament is a busted flush, the working class is where it is at.

Tories are the Real Threat to Public Safety

The Tories presided over a campaign of cuts since linked to the deaths of 330,000 people. They're in no position to demonise workers now striking to save the public services those cuts brought to their knees

The Government want you to believe the people who
Gave you a safe birth
Kept you healthy
Managed your diseases
Saved your life
Did the same for your children
And will hold your hand so you don't die alone
Are your enemies

But you wouldn’t know that from the mainstream media, which is treating them as two separate stories. Let me make the connection. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-can-we-protect-our-democracy#details
How can we protect our democracy when the media doesn't let us know how it's being threatened?

The facts of the matter: The latest figures for the Universities pension scheme reveal a £5.6bn SURPLUS. A controversial valuation in 2020 claimed a £14bn deficit - which led to a range of benefit cuts for staff. No wonder university staff are angry, taken for a ride... #UCU #UCURising

“Staff are burnt out, but they are fighting back, and they will bring the whole sector to a standstill. Vice-chancellors only have themselves to blame. Their woeful leadership has led to the biggest vote for strike action ever in our sector”.

Looking forward to the UCU rally tomorrow! We’re striking to reclaim our pensions and against pay inequality, excessive workload, casualisation, and declining pay against inflation #UcuStrikes #ucurising https://www.ucu.org.uk/rising

UCU members in higher education are rising up and saying enough is enough.
