It's a good idea. In Japan. Sadly, due to the draconian anti-trade union legislation in the UK meaning only affected workers can be balloted, any attempt to replicate this in the guards dispute would involve other grades, be deemed secondary action and, therefore, illegal. Sorry.

In case you want to know what's actually going on.

Robert, don't know what the news reporting is like under that rock upon on which you're living, but I have to tell you mate, Dave ain't on strike! Such a shame after you've spent all that time making such a pretty meme as well!

We live in the age of the jabby, confrontational interview & the RMTs, Mick Lynch, has had a few of them. If you treat people with respect, you can still ask tough questions & get decent answers allowing your audience to make their own minds up Channel 5 News

This is a widespread misapprehension. Successful asylum applicants will *not* be able to return from Rwanda to the UK. This is why such changes should require parliamentary scrutiny and approval. It's harder to maintain this kind of error when voting on a policy line by line.

Last week the Conservatives legislated to bring in agency workers to break strikes, now the Liberal Democrats are proposing that the Army should do the same. It is quite clear that these people do not stand with the workers of this country. Never has it been more important to #JoinAUnion

Does the Labour front bench even understand that BA workers aren’t asking for a pay rise, just a restoration of the 10% pay cut they were hit with during the pandemic?

This is a lie. 81.5% voted for this action. There is no “15% pay rise” on offer. There is no “£7,000 more a year”. Junior criminal barristers will remain on less than minimum wage. Read the truth here: x.com/barristersecre…

we already did a decade of austerity in response to an economic crisis, and the outcome was a collapse in living standards for everyone but the ruling classes, who became wealthier than they've ever been in human history, without even delivering on promised economic stability

The New Statesman Keir Starmer Rachel Wearmouth Nobody is complaining ( as Starmer implies) that he has changed his mind since he was a teenager. The issue is that he has dropped every single one of the 10 pledges he made in 2020 to get elected leader.

Just today we’ve had a Tory MP suggest women should not be able to make decisions about their own bodies, we’ve had a protestor the government doesn’t like apprehended by police and we’ve been told that only the Prime Minister can approve an investigation into his own conduct

Tell that to the complainants in my rape cases currently waiting 5 years for a trial because of your continued refusal to fund the justice system.

In the height of summer, the Hitokotonushi Shrine in Ibaraki sets up on oasis for bees where they can safely collect water:

Nadhim Zahawi should focus on why life is getting harder for most people in Britain after 12 years of his party being in power rather than make hateful slurs against me. His sorry attempt to excuse his previous support for Johnson trivialises the fight against antisemitism.

It’s quite grotesque that just 5 years after Grenfell multiple candidates for Prime Minister can assert they’re for cutting “red tape” without any challenge.

Universal Credit for a single person is £4,018.92 for an entire year. Last year Suella Braverman MP claimed £4,815.59 in expenses for her second home.
