Here’s a clip from an interview this morning, as temperatures are set to reach dangerous highs of 34°C

The government promised us action on working temperatures. Now’s the time!

Are you a trade union rep concerned about the temperature in your workplace?

Want to get your hands on one of our @tuc.org.uk thermometers?

The majority of people who do not believe Britain should be supporting the bombing of Iran must raise their voices

Not just for the people of Iran or even Palestine, but for yourself: we all become less safe the moment our state steps in to justify bloodshed abroad

Important public interest journalism from @joeduggan1.bsky.social at the i

We @the-tuc.bsky.social are calling for a ban on the use of high-silica stone as young men working with it continue to die.

An interesting comparison: the number of days workers take off sick costs the economy far more than the number of days workers are on strike

Petitions are cool, but have you ever seen workers air their collective grievances over lack of toilet access directly onto loo rolls? 🧻 🧻 🧻

If you’ve left Twitter to come here, I guarantee you’ll be fascinated (and perhaps a bit frightened) by this podcast from @tortoisemedia.bsky.social

It looks at how the rich and powerful pay huge sums to have employees, lovers, even those who criticise them on the internet, surveilled and smeared.
