"Every time Farage votes against improving our rights at work and in favour of deregulation and privatisation, they're about dividing communities, pitting worker against worker, while the rich get richer." @GawainLittle at Tyne & Wear #MayDay. #MayDay2025 #ReformUK #GFTU

This is Reform UK treasurer Nick Candy, appointed by Nigel Farrage. Nick Candy boasted to a FT journalist in 2010 "I don't pay tax!" (From his home in Monaco) He and his brother developed property in London through an offshore company to avoid tax. Patriotic? It's a con.

Tearing the Post Office away from Royal Mail was political sabotage. Yet another blow to our public services by successive governments. Now, Royal Mail’s new owners have a choice: keep racing to the bottom, or finally put people before profit. The public is watching.

A peerage for Mark Harper and a knighthood for Grant Shapps after these two former Tory Transport Secretaries needlessly extended industrial action that cost the economy well over a £1 billion & who both did nothing about the disgraceful P&O sackings. More rewards for failure!

Saving thousands of jobs is what it’s all about ! Good to spend a Saturday afternoon supporting the Steel Industry ( Special Measures ) Bill. Let’s hope there’s more Government control to support the great working people of this country.

In Gary Stevenson, the left has finally found an eloquent, honest and credible campaigner against inequality – we should champion him. 🖊️ @meadwaj: Who’s afraid of @garyseconomics? newstatesman.com/ideas/2025/…

Super interesting. Norway has 17 billionaires. The UK has a population 12X larger and yet it has...55 billionaires. Yet Norway has a higher rate of tax and has a wealth tax. Its higher rate of capital gains tax is also much higher (its equalised with dividends). 1/2

Tomorrow your water bill will sky-rocket with an above-inflation hike. This is because the regulator is allowing extractive private companies to rinse the public. In Parliament I've called for an end to the failed experiment of water privatisation.

It was very sad news to hear that Bob Cullen passed away at the weekend.  Bob was a lifelong trade unionist and socialist who made a fantastic contribution in representing our members and workers everywhere.  He was one of the best reps I have ever come across and survived many attempts by Royal Mail to sack him, through the support of his members and the union.  He stood against all forms of injustice and understood the true meaning of working-class solidarity.  We send our sincere condolences to all of Bob’s family and friends, he was a great comrade and friend and a truly unique character who will be sorely missed.  RIP Bob

.@garyseconomics speaking to rally outside the Treasury for a wealth tax: “We can win… we need to build this.” He’s right.
