BT Group made £1.3bn profit. BT Group paid out £700m to shareholders. BT Group CEO paid £3.5m this year. BT Group have opened foodbanks at work because staff can’t get through the month on their own pay. No more. No further. The line is drawn. VOTE YES TODAY.

I NEED EVERY FOLLOWER TO RT THIS Your local postie is facing the most important week ever. They are facing intimidation, threats and bullying from an out of control management team. They will strike for 2 days to save the service and their jobs. Are you with them?

BT made £1.3bn, gave £750m to shareholders and the CEO got £3.5m. We have members using foodbanks. Today BT announced £400m profit for 1/4 year. Tomorrow our members strike for the first time since 1987 and have been subjected to extreme intimidation. RT if you back them.

Today The Scum newspaper, Piers Morgan, Alan Sugar and Richard Madeley have attacked Mick Lynch. If that was all you knew about the dispute it would be enough to judge that Mick is doing a great job. This mob have consistently been in the wrong side of history and justice.

Every single person now calling for Johnson to go has backed every decision he has taken as PM. This isn’t a good group of people doing the right thing. This is them doing him before he does them all. Survival. Nothing more. Join a union. The fightback starts at work

Whilst people were dying they were drinking wine in the garden. Whilst people’s mental health was suffering due to lockdown they were in their second homes. Whilst businesses collapsed they held Christmas parties. The Tories are rotten to the core. They always have been.

I’m on a picket line. It is absolutely hammering down with rain. The rep has just told me this is the biggest picket line of the whole dispute so far. Our members are incredible. Victory to the postal workers. #StandByYourPost
