The Palestinian ambassador to the UK, Husam Zomlot, thanks the British trade union movement for passing a motion calling for an immediate ceasefire, recognition of the state of Palestine, sanctions, and an end to arms exports to Israel. #TUC24

👏Very well said sean vernell 👍Excellent that Trades Union Congress are taking the threat of escalating war seriously. ☮️Stop the escalation of war in the Middle East!

I am shocked, and utterly over the moon, to win four #MJAAwards this evening, including the Outstanding Contribution to Health Journalism. It’s a complete honour. Thank you to the judges and all those who have helped and supported me with these stories.

BREAKING: all MPs on all TV shows to be permanently replaced by Jonathan Ashworth

Very good

I can't stop laughing about this picture of Starmer. "A-wella-wella-wella-HUH! Tell me more, tell me more, did you get very far?"

It wasn't until January 2022 that the Tories first polled as low as 29% - two years after winning and as the partygate scandal broke. Keir Starmer has managed this feat in two months.

Stephen Lawrence would have been 50 today. The struggle for a world without racist violence continues.

Brilliant to see Beth Farhat from NEU Northern on the local news promoting the National Education Union Free School Meals for All campaign.

Good to see 🙂

Such an energy at the first NEU reps conference. We've had to get a second venue and run it over two sites. 500 reps, getting together - to learn, grow and develop. #ProudtobeNEU

Happy Birthday to Karl Marx’s Capital Volume I, published on 14 September 1867. davidharvey.org/reading-capita…

I had the best conversation with an American woman on a train platform who noticed my “educators against the far right” bag. She wishes her country was as reactive in stamping out the riots, and thanked me for visibly spreading the message. This is why we do what we do! #NEU

Great event today 👍

The JC has become a hard right publication and propagandist for genocide. This is a terrible ethical mess theguardian.com/world/2024/sep…
