Workers generate wealth, CEOs take unfair share.

At Melrose, CEO to average worker pay ratio is 1,112
Tesco 375
Marks & Spencer 261
Associated British Foods 218
Sainsbury's 195

How will the Govt secure equitable distribution of income for workers, reduce poverty?

Watch the Minister's answer.

“The president should be removed from office because he is plainly insane.”

I mean, there is no war in Portland. There just isn’t. You can’t & won’t avoid reporting this story. But you’ll still find a way to try to report it in a way that gives him the benefit of the doubt.

And that’s wrong.

So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reform’s collusion with Russia. And this is how democracy gets beaten to death in the dark. Voters are not being told the truth. Reform is given the stage but is NEVER held to account.

Labour promised us 'the biggest wave of insourcing of public services in a generation.'

Some @unison NHS staff are seeing the exact opposite, with plans to shift them to worse contracts with a private provider.

Labour must make good on its insourcing promise and keep our #NHS public.

The government wants to bring back private finance in our NHS. 🤬

This would harm patients by siphoning off hundreds of millions of pounds in profits from our NHS. 🤑

Rachel Reeves and Wes Streeting, you can still drop these disastrous and unpopular plans. Share if you agree.

Do you agree with the Pope that the pay gaps between bosses and their workers have grown too wide?

Then sign our petition calling for maximum 10:1 pay ratios for CEOs and workers: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/it...

🚨BREAKING🚨

Private finance has been a disaster for our #NHS 🤬

Trusts still owe more than £40 billion on PFI contracts, with some hospitals spending more on PFI debt than on medicines. 🤯

Tell Wes Steeting - no new PFI in our NHS. Sign up below👇

This government promised us 'the biggest wave of insourcing of public services in a generation' 🌊

Have you seen it?! We definitely haven't. 🧐

BUT now that the government are planning changes to the Procurement Act, we've got a chance to put the pressure on. 💪

Take action now. 👇

"We can have clean water or privatised water but we can’t have both"

"The British public is right, the evidence supports them"
