A vertical campaign poster on a black background. At the top, large white bold text reads "MARCH TOGETHER." Below this, three colorful rectangular blocks contain the words "LOVE" (green), "HOPE" (pink), and "UNITY" (orange). The main message continues in large white text: "AGAINST THE FAR RIGHT." In the center, a green hand-drawn oval circles the text "Saturday 28th March, Central London." At the bottom, the poster includes a QR code, the URL "togetheralliance.org.uk" with the call to action "Add your name," and the "TOGETHER" logo in the bottom right corner.

Newly unearthed Nigel Farage videos reveal support for rioter, neo-Nazi event and far-right slogans Exclusive: Analysis of more than 4,000 of Reform UK leader’s paid-for Cameo videos also shows they contain misogynistic remarks and antisemitic conspiracies

Misogyny.
Anti-semitism.
Racism.

The evidence is clear: Nigel Farage is not the answer to division; he’s part of the problem.

And his behaviour is sickening.

Enough is enough. Join us on 28 March, together against the far-right.

U.S. Air Force B-1 And B-52 Bombers Now Striking Iran From The UK The U.S. Air Force now operates three distinct bomber aircraft, all of which can trace their development back to the Cold War.

US bombers loading up on UK airstrips before raining down bombs on Iran.

Parliament wasn't consulted - and polling shows huge numbers oppose it.

When do MPs get a say over our involvement in this war?

For the first time @unionworkersunion.org have taken a movement wide approach in their state of the nation survey & report.

A useful reflection on how collectively we can all support positive internal change with a sector wide approach.
Worth dual carding with UWU alongside regular staffer unions!

Words and commitments are fine to hear from Westminster.
But what nursing really needs is real change, fully funded career progression and recognition in their pay now of the advance skills they carry out day to day!

As we mark Holocaust Memorial Day, this year's theme is ‘bridging generations’.

It's a reminder that the responsibility of remembrance does not end with the survivors – it lives on through their children, their grandchildren and all of us.

Well done @rcoanews.bsky.social and @assocanaes.bsky.social for taking action and stepping away from activity on Twitter/X

I know many, many trade unionists will be so disappointed and angry at local members not being given a say over who their candidate should be. This isn’t the way any democratic organisation should be run. Now’s the time to unite our movement not divide it.

The UK’s water system is failing. UNISON is calling for renationalisation, backed by strong regulation and a properly funded Environment Agency, to deliver lower bills and a cleaner environment.
