This week, RMT launched its campaign to end exploitative and inefficient rail outsourcing.
Help us to make the Labour government’s promised ‘biggest wave of insourcing for a generation’ a reality for rail workers.

Reposting just for the 'Sissy Spacex' crack. Brilliant.
Not satisfied with purchasing a Presidential Election to become co-President, Sissy SpaceX now wants to buy himself a Supreme Court judge in Wisconsin.

You can end his shopping spree, Wisconsinites! 🚫 💰

Ahead of the Spring Statement, here's a reminder of the amazing public services we've had stolen from us for years because governments have been hell-bent on cuts & austerity.

Stop punishing ordinary people. Stealing services isn't fair - why not tax a billionaire?

Great the FT now demands special administration for Thames Water!

But this aim is 100% wrong "to return Thames to the market as a stable, privately owned firm"

Privatisation failed

The aim must be to transfer Thames Water into PERMANENT PUBLIC OWNERSHIP

"We have to join together as one, and stop this from going any further."

Laura Reineke of @henleymermaids.bsky.social reacts to today's £3 billion bailout. Thames Water limps on, leaking cash, and failing its 16 million customers.

It's privatisation, and it's rotten to the core.

This week the High Court will decide whether to bail out failing Thames Water with a £3bn loan.

That's a handout YOU will pay for through your bills!

No bailout. No more rip-offs. No more shareholder bungs at our expense - public ownership is the solution.

“There are some who oppose the NHS model and believe that the answer to our challenges is privatisation. They want us to believe that the health service is beyond saving and on the point of collapse. But that is simply not true.”

Well said @johnswinney.bsky.social 👏🏾

So it was Savile who fucked up my career! Makes sense!
April 1999. Live TV.

Lee & @herring1967.bsky.social being fucking heroes.

This was on the BBC, where Savile had a bizarre amount of power & control. Is it just a coincidence that they didn't get another series, with Stewart Lee only reappearing on the beeb 10 years later, 2 years before JS died?
