A new law could give millions of us better rights at work, but corporate lobbyists & politicians are trying to gut it. Tell the Government: protect workers, not profits!

UK Government: Keep your promise to protect workers
Zero hours contracts, unfair ‘fire and rehire’, waiting months or even years to be able to access benefits – the world of work in our country is weighted against actual workers. It’s billionaire bosse...

🚨 Water bosses are dodging the ban on bonuses that was meant to put an end to their huge pay packets - while sewage floods our rivers and seas and our bills soar. That's why I've signed the petition to help put an end to this scandal. Will you join me?

We brought coffee, an alarm and over 21,000 complaints to Ofcom’s door because Murdoch’s TalkTV is breaking the law, and the regulator is snoozing on the job.

Emily Eavis should pay Stewart his £50- expenses and remind him Glastonbury is not the place to promote climate deniers and worse -then nicely tell him to f—ck right off.

Brilliant care yesterday at Addenbrooks Cambridge.
From 111 to being seen in A&E by two consultants and discharged with immediate treatment and future plan of care . All within 5 hrs.
The NHS is clearly coming back to life. The Tories tried their best to kill it off - but failed!

Glad to see the Assisted Dying Act has gone through.
Very difficult issues but imo on balance it’s right to allow people in that position the opportunity to have their life ended.

When former Tory and UKIP MP Douglas Carswell demands 'the mass deportation of Pakistanis', he is calling for the expulsion of British-born UK citizens whose grandparents were legal immigrants to this country. Has either of his former parties disowned him yet?

We warmly welcome the Government's move to give victims of domestic abuse and young care leavers greater access to social housing. With the commitment to repeal the Vagrancy Act and greater funding for affordable housing, it's a great start to tackling homelessness 👏 www.gov.uk/government/n...

France also will support Israel if threatened by Iran.
No doubt the same will apply to other European States.
