And the Councils are still making a profit from their much reduced rent. This is how much you are being ripped off. 46414

Richard Capps @rojo55.bsky.social · 30/11/2024The lesson was the same in 2011 as in 1926: that if the unions work together with a unified aim, they can win. They lose when they allow the government to divide them. Add 1984-85 into this as well. 010
Richard Capps @rojo55.bsky.social · 27/11/2024Last year private firms made £45 billion profit from the UK domestic energy system. If that money had been kept in public hands, it could have been used to save each household £1,800 on their energy bills. (Info from Unite Community 2024 Conference). Privatisation doesn't work for us or at all. 020

But he still needed a 45% pay rise. Like if he needs a pay cut. RP if you want the Monarchy gone. #AbolishTheMonarchy 41566782823

Reposted by Richard CappsRobert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power. 401391370
