We've got so many articles @WritersofColour by working class black and brown people about working class struggle and resistance. Gonna tweet them over the weekend cos the erasure is pissing me off now. One to get started mediadiversified.org/2013/10/0

'Labour' is a terrible name for the current party. 'Capital' doesn't cut it either.

The nearest I can get in vibe is 'Trainee Manager'.

The cruelty isn't the point, power is: the power to use other people in cruel ways, to be sure, but also the power to float above other people's pain, sorrow and concern. The rich dream of a world where "personal responsibility" is code for "total lack of empathy."

Everyone should also know about the relationship between sophisticated & near invisible corporate propaganda & the neoliberal policies embraced by successive UK Govts for the last forty years, which have led to the multiple crises in Britain & beyond.

This is a vital piece by @Jonathan_K_Cook. The huge, menacing elephant in the room that is unmentionable in liberal media. 👇

Progressive Democrats: Organizing outside of the Democratic Party would take too long, and the Republicans would destroy the country in the meantime.

🔴 REVEALED: Train companies paid out nearly £800m to shareholders last year before telling rail unions that employees must take a real-terms pay cut for them to stay afloat bit.ly/3zZ9Yug

British Airways used the pandemic as cover for a massive fire and rehire scheme, which cut workers' pay by 10%.

Then when you factor in inflation knocking another 10% off the value of their payslips? No wonder they're going on strike! twitter.com/SkyNewsBreak/statu

How many of us were taught working-class history in school? Did we learn about the levellers, the chartists or the tolpuddle martyrs? Do we really appreciate the role played by working-class people who fought tool and nail for many of the rights we enjoy today?

@OliverDowden Remember this.
The good people of Tiverton and Honiton along with Wakefield obviously agree.

@OliverDowden I can tolerate racism, sexism, homophobia, lies, bullying, a cost of living crisis and partying while tens of thousands of people died, but I draw the line at losing elections because of that

As surprising as it is, and as much fun as it is, to see a working class man with the rhetorical skills to show up these wooden-tops, the real question is why does our media (and indeed our country) function in this manner

Remember folks, when the LDs were offered a choice of Tory or Labour as a coalition partner, they chose Tory and ushered in Austerity. But yeah, 'progressive alliance '.

RT @tribunemagazine
The latest Tory plan to force agency staff to replace striking workers is a scab charter – and only one of the many ways Britain’s laws are rigged against workers.
