FBU political fund ballot result.

Fire Brigades Union members have voted YES by 91% to maintain our political fund.

Well done everyone.
Thanks to all officials for delivering this campaign.

The moment at which ⁦Columbia University⁩ defined its own faculty as posing a threat to the safety of members of our community. An insult which dishonors only those making it!

This looks very interesting

Thank you to Dawn Butler MP✊🏾💙 for bringing this investigation to Parliament. 🚨

Unearthed wanted to know what was going on in the campaign against clean air... What they found shocked us.

It's NOT OK that this issue is providing a platform for racist and violent discourse.

“Conservative party staff and activists are secretly operating a network of Facebook groups that have become a hotbed of racism, misinformation and support for criminal damage”

Believe in a free & fair democracy? Then, you should be deeply concerned 👇🏾 theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

We spent weeks documenting airstrikes in southern Gaza and found that civilians were killed in areas the Israeli government had explicitly designated as safe zones. Our exclusive report👇

Interesting from Richard Brown on London nightlife and licensing in central London.

Don't miss this important Conference hosted by John McDonnell MP - a great line up includes Fran Heathcote PCS Union, Jess Barnard, asad rehman War on Want & more!

Good grief.

Last night Gateshead FC were supposed to have played in National League play offs. Instead the EFL made the decision they are unable to. 

I have written to the Chief Exec of EFL & Leader of Gateshead Council Martin Gannon to ask that they both do all they can resolve the matter asap

Is there a site that’s collating/covering the student actions over Gaza, both the USA and here (and elsewhere)? Including coverage of the political content of the protests?

'Do you believe that?'
'No.'
'Why did you post it?'
'I don't know.'

Tom Swarbrick challenges Susan Hall after she reposted an article stating, 'It is a delusion that humans can control the climate'.

Useful Resolution Foundation thread on rising defence spending.

Butter not guns.

This evening I went to see Nye as an National Theatre Live at the Gateshead Vue

It’s brilliant.

Extremely moving, funny and inspiring.

How does Michael Sheen do that every night? Incredible

Dreadful and unjust situation, hope it gets resolved quickly. Took my son to Gateshead for his first football match, couldn’t have asked for a friendlier experience. It’s a decent local club with a hard-working team who don’t deserve this treatment

A highly sectarian move by the Workers Party, standing against John McDonnell.

James Watt, CEO of Brewdog, is so punk he..

•⁠ ⁠attended Nigel Farage's 60th birthday party.
•⁠ ⁠scrapped paying staff the real living wage.

Which is why he's our Worst Employer of the Month!
