Looking forward to Ken Loach's last ever film, "The Old Oak," about Syrian refugees deposited in an ex-mining village in North-East England. The landlord of the eponymous pub in the title is played by first-time actor Paul Turner, who was a firefighter for 30 years & the regional chair of the Fire Brigades Union when he first met Loach.
His female star is Syrian actor Ebla Mari, born in the Golan Heights (now occupied by Israel).

BBC News - UK Firefighters' strike postponed as union votes over new pay offer

Strikes can win - Firefighters are offered more pay.

However, it'still less than inflation. Should the accept it?

Rail workers. #Nurses. Lecturers. Civil servants. #Paramedics. Driving instructors. #Teachers. Now the Fire Brigades Union has voted overwhelmingly (88% on a 74% turnout) for #strike action here in the UK. The Tories have destroyed public services, all the while lining their own pockets. They must go.

Terrific article here from Matt Wrack, the head of the #FBU, on #firefighters' reasons for striking. They have my full support.

@LouiseRaw
This lot won't remember the last national fire strike.
Back then the military was significantly larger - it's been cut salami-like for 13 years and has vacancies because of outsourced recruitment to Crapita
In short, they will seriously struggle to assemble a reasonable emergency cover
And the reserve fire engine stock is crap
They can't use the modern ones- too much training required
The government will fold on this one.

Seeing the news about firefighters from Grenfell is alarming but not a surprise, after 9/11 more ppl have died from cancers then those who were in the buildings. We a need a public inquiry in this, and a compensation scheme set up for all those effected

Really great to see #MattWrack of the #FBU putting Sky News in its place, calling on them to present facts rather than cherry pick to suit their anti union agenda.

I don't know anything about Matt Stack but I'm wondering if he's one to watch, he had no issue with calling out the news presenter and it was great to see.

Every day another union ballots for strikes fills my heart with revolutionary joy. I'm so proud of the #WorkingClass of the UK right now. ✊✊✊
