@Bec2043 @SandraDunn1955 There were illegal birthday parties in 10 Downing Street. But protests are not illegal, when there are no covid restrictions.

Tories telling lies about nurses will not turn us against the nurses. It'll turn us against the Tories and bring more of us out on strike, to support all the workers who are treated less well than Nadhim Zahawi's horses.

RT @3rdEye59782564: “Ministers tour TV studios to say that raising strikers’ pay is “unaffordable”. But a country affords what it prioritises. George Osborne deceitfully spoke of us all being “all in it together”, but it’s a civic sentiment still to be called on in a national emergency.”

RT @SocialistHB: The starting salary for a Nurse is NOT £31,000. @SteveBarclay knows it and @nadhimzahawi knows it. Yet they’re being allowed to lie to millions of people to demonise us!
@SkyNews you need to put out a correction. #SophieRidge #ToriesOut

In this country you have no identity, no access to anything, unless you have a phone. Everyone with a right to be here needs free identity papers-- proof in hard copy of their right to exist, to vote, to access benefits. We have a system that requires ID but doesn't issue any 🙄

"All benefits were stopped when his online claim asked him to “verify his identity”, but he couldn’t as his phone had run out of credit."

"Absurdly, it can be worth earning £5 less to qualify... the DWP work coaches are increasingly told to pressure claimants to earn more – although they'll lose 55p in universal credit for every extra £ they earn: effectively a 55% tax on extra earnings":

RT @CBTransport: Millions of people want to switch to greener transport 🚆💚
A survey by @stagecoachgroup showed that 54% of motorists are open to switching some or all of their journeys to public transport, bike or foot. But action is needed from govt & local councils👇

RT @MichealEAP: My PhD is on working class adult education. In the 1920s and 1930s thousands of the poorest workers would fill town halls to listen to lectures on local government, botany, philosophy etc. Where did it all go wrong?
