🔉What dangers does X pose to our democracy? And should the government stop using it?

Good to hear yesterday from @sundersays.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social on the immense risk of X as it ignores legal obligations and its owner tries to influence UK politics.

TfL's decision to roll back the Cleaner Vehicle Discount is deeply disappointing.

Drivers who did the right thing and went electric - just like City Hall asked - face paying thousands of pounds in new costs.

We are also losing one of London's most effective clean air tools.

The Government says NHS workers deserve just a 2.5% pay rise. 🏥🚑

Ministers must step up and deliver the fair pay our health heroes deserve.

Today, we pause to honour the courage, service and sacrifice of the millions from South Asia who helped defend the freedoms we cherish.

Eighty years since the end of the WW2, their stories continue to shape who we are.

GMB wins again!
One of our members in Southampton has secured a settlement worth over £9,000 after union support in their case.

As Bob Crow said:
“If you fight you won’t always win. But if you don’t fight, you will always lose.”

Lest you're attacked by the Right... No pilots from what was then India flew in the Battle of Britain. They weren't trained for advanced types (Spitfires and Hurricanes).
You're right in that they did fly over France in 1941. After Japan joined, squadrons moved to the Burma border... (more)
