You love to see it...

🚨28th August is the 1st day back at school, and the 1st day of indefinite strike action by school secretaries & caretakers.

The Dept of Public Expenditure can avoid this by doing the right thing.

Secretaries and caretakers deserve public service pensions. And everyone knows it.

So proud to march at Trans and Intersex Pride today.

Trans rights are worker's rights!

UK bosses to be banned from using NDAs to cover up misconduct at work Exclusive: Changes to workers’ rights bill will prohibit the silencing of staff who suffer harassment or discrimination

Lots of employers will be feeling rightly uncomfortable right now… good.

Brutal commentary from RTE 😂

Petrified Survivors — world's first memorial to victims of wartime sexual violence unveiled in Europe The sculpture Petrified Survivors is the world's first memorial honouring all survivors of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) — unveiled at the British ambassador's residence in The Hague on 3 July.

And a charge hopefully brought against him for perjury.

Solidarity to Nikita Hand, today & every day.

Forsa at pride!!

Happy Pride from Fórsa!

From Budapest to Ballymena, we're sending our solidarity and pride to our LGBTIA+ members and communities bravely and proudly marching.

Trade unions are for everyone!

💚Bród in Oibre, Bród in Fórsa 💚 #DublinPride

If you think the chants led by Kneecap at Glastonbury about Keir Starmer are bad, just wait until tomorrow’s PLP meeting.

It's important to acknowledge when we discuss why a minority of young men are attracted to the radical right that part of the answer is "they're obnoxious".

It's not all about being dispossessed and left behind it's also twats.

Raise The Roof- the labour movement must start including housing demands into our bargaining agenda or wage rises are just getting funnelled straight back into the pockets of the rich.

Listening to Elif Shafak speaking last night gave me so much hope.

Actually impressive levels of inconsideration here

This should make people stand up & take notice.

Super majority ballot result on a super majority turnout. It can be done 💪🏻

A large group of forsa members holding a sign that says fair pensions for all school staff. they're all cheering and laughing, lots of energy.

⚡️98% of school secretaries & caretakers in favour of indefinite strike!⚡️

81.7% turnout in the ballot for public service pensions. Well done to union members for an overwhelming mandate to take this fight all the way.

Strong. United. Determined. There’ll be no stopping them!

In case you're wondering, authoritarians use this strategy of escalation to manufacture crisis, provoke outrage, then use the reaction to justify repression. It’s not about restoring order, it's about creating a spectacle of chaos they can claim only they can control.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

Perfect

I’m not sure the law there works tbh, but it will be interesting to watch!

Rock-ket man strikes

Our colleagues in many European unions, affiliated to @epsu.bsky.social, know from bitter experience that care of the vulnerable should not be left to profiteers.

The 🇮🇪 government needs to change direction now.

Thanks to Aoife Hegarty and #RTEinvestigates for shining a 🔦.

Why Did Burning Girls Matter in Vietnam but Not in Gaza? The 'Napalm Girl' photo shocked the world and helped end the Vietnam War – but a viral video of a child surrounded by flames and other similar images in Gaza can't even provoke a ceasefire.

Great event in Liberty Hall last night with @sanders.senate.gov

Completely agree that the left needs to get its act together with less meetings of the converted, & instead do more organising ✊🏻

There still needs to be a clear out of those who caused this situation at the Camogie Association, they’ve humiliated the sport on an international level.

Great segment on Prime Time tonight, about the growing epidemic of misogyny. Interesting that the guy who pulled himself back from the brink referenced Jordan Peterson- the gateway drug to fascism.

What did you do during the genocide in Gaza? | Arwa Mahdawi When future generations read about Gaza with horror and wonder how we allowed a livestreamed genocide to happen, what will you say?

Every single word of this.

We had a decade of self ID with no problem whatsoever until right wingers imported foreign bigotry.
