"Oh, I want to live in a Brand New Britain Never cross a picket line Where workers' rights are enshrined and written Never cross a picket line You must never cross a picket line" - @billybragg #BrumBinStrike

There is no moral difference between telling people they can have shower so you can gas them in gas chambers and telling people they can have food so you can shoot them at aid sites. A holocaust is happening right before our eyes and the world is silent.

It’s not famine. It’s forced starvation. Mass starvation stalks Gaza as deaths from hunger rise.

For months Birmingham strikers and residents have been lied to by the council and @GOVUK. Finally it is acknowledged that the government commissioners under @AngelaRayner did have the final say in the deal. Promised broken. #Birmingham 1⃣of2⃣⤵️ birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-…

Thanks to ex @BCFC and @BarnsleyFC player Nicky Eaden for this message of support to striking Birmingham bin workers. Up the workers! #BrumBinStrike #BCFC @eadensbar2 @EyupandDown

The Brum bin workers are not asking for a pay rise; they just want the Government to stop attacking their pay. No one can afford to lose £8000 per year; it's ludicrous and unnecessary. It's time for @AngelaRayner @UKLabour to bin her Tory commissioners, get in the room and…

Yes 👏🏽👏🏽 @AyoubKhanMP

Thanks to @UnionSteveW and @fbunational for their solidarity to the striking Birmingham bin workers on Politics Live today. An £8,000 pay cut for any worker is completely unacceptable & for it to be happening under a @UKLabour council is obscene - the @UKLabour govt must…

When I was elected @unitetheunion GS, I promised to uncover the truth about allegations of historical corruption, particularly in relation to the Birmingham Hotel and Conference Centre. I can now provide information from the independent inquiries I commissioned, through this…

Striking bin worker, Danny Taylor, talks of @UKLabour's betrayal.

Massive Attack announce alliance of musicians speaking out over Gaza against “intimidations from within our industry” Other acts supporting the alliance include Kneecap, Fontaines D.C., Brian Eno and Garbage nme.com/news/music/mas…

So, are we meant to all pretend that people with visible ethnic differences don't experience racism differently from those who appear to be white? That's gonna be the Labour line?

Today's police presence at the picket line. @BhamCityCouncil wastes more and more money on strike-breaking agency workers and heavy-handed police. Did you know the taxpayer has been stung for almost £1m to cover the cost of policing picket lines?

🚨 🚨Uncovered: WhatsApp conversations between @BhamCityCouncil MD and Unite Leader reveals evidence of the @GOVUK's part-time Commissioners orchestrating strike agreements. birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-…

📢 @BhamCityCouncil and @coventrycc's @TomWhiteWaste scabs attack activists outside the Coventry depot.

After numerous weeks of speaking to residents in 6 wards, this week we have reached the milestone of a thousand conversations with concerned constituents in Birmingham. Out of the 1098 residents we have spoken to, 928 have agreed to a bin sticker. This equates to 84.5% in…

Birmingham binworkers strike: Tom Whites Scab Operation in Coventry blocked for the second time this week. Unfortunately police helped the scabs get out. #BrumBinStrike

Wow! This is during a Residente's concert in Valencia, Spain 🇪🇸 Thousands of fans are chanting for a free Palestine.

The situation at @BhamCityCouncil is essentially #FireAndRehire - it makes a mockery of the Employment Relations Act promises. @AngelaRayner is in charge of the commissioners who are blocking the deal that would end this dispute. @UniteEconomy

Striking #Birmingham bin worker Danny nails it at our Policy Conference last week. @BhamCityCouncil and unelected commissioners controlled by @AngelaRayner are forcing austerity cuts on our members to fix a financial mess the council created. Quite reasonably, @unitetheunion…
