Art class today. Bus: 40 minutes + 15 minutes' walk. Train: 25 minutes, almost door to door.

However there's a train strike so although there is a limit service, I shall be taking the bus.

Hurts us to say this as a union in north-east England but yes, you're allowed to wear coats on a picket line. In fact, it's recommended (it's just that we'll keep turning up in shorts and t-shirts)

Tomorrow I’ll be going on a picket line and I’ll be wearing my winter coat hope that’s okay with everyone 👌 @RMTunion@twitter.com #uptheworkers

If unions and us strikers were "holding the country to ransom", we'd ask for proper ransom-y stuff like helicopters, a gorilla to take down the pub, naked pics of Bea Arthur etc.

Not a fair wage & to not starve in freezing homes.
Try better politicians

In 2023, there must be no fence-sitting. Either you stand with a corrupt govt allowing your health system to collapse, or you're with NHS workers as we fight back against the greatest assault on the NHS in its 75 year history. I know where I stand. Do you?

Ce 24 décembre, avant le match face à St. Johnstone, la Green Brigade a de nouveau exprimé sa pleine solidarité avec ce mouvement parti pour durer, et peut-être se durcir. Au mois d’août dernier, la North Curve Celtic avait apporté son soutien à la campagne “Enough is Enough!” et au syndicat RMT.

L’inflation frôle les 11% et touche de larges pans de la société britannique. Beaucoup de supporters sont des travailleurs qui subissent le durcissement des conditions de vie de plein fouet. “C’est pourquoi il y a eu une ovation debout lorsque la Green Brigade a déployé ces nombreuses bannières en soutien à la classe ouvrière qui se rebiffe contre les dirigeants avides d’argent et le gouvernement sans cœur.”

Still, while I never meant for this account to be politically involved - I've had years of that on the Doomed Bird Site® and my mental health is fucked in no small part because the world is dreadful and I couldn't stop looking at it - I just think it's telling how words and phrasing are selected, consciously or not.

Anyway, #UpTheWorkers, #SupportTheNHS and #ProscribeTheToryOCG.
