I worked at the Independent for nearly a year - on a 'casual contract' for £88 a shift - and this is spot on. Almost all news writers were on 0 hours contracts, most young women. Meanwhile (literally) all news editors male - and many explicitly sexist.

In Myanmar, underground groups set up to resist the coup are amplifying the demands of striking workers. They have helped couriers pivot to a customer boycott campaign, as they take on a European food delivery giant, amid a hostile military regime.

The DWP’s “tactics of threats, arbitrary deadlines and bureaucratic violence have been shown to be life-threatening” - @chinatmills Last week, Margaret Tyszkow was found dead in a river. She feared she was in debt to the DWP. In fact, she owed them £4.55.

Very sad to hear Grow Heathrow is being evicted after 9 years, despite so much more awareness recently of climate crisis and the imperative to act. I visited for @HUCKmagazine a couple of years ago and was struck by the positive social impact of the site

NEW: A bailiff was in court today charged with a firearms offence. Police were called to an illegal eviction at an empty textile factory owned by former TORY COUNCILLOR @NizzaFluss 's family business, and found him with pepper spray and a taser.

This could take different forms: shifts, help with specific projects (focus weeks, for instance), or a temporary part-time contract lasting several months. We can be flexible. The most important thing to us is finding the right person, or people, for the job.

We (mostly recent grads) got no support or training & were put under pressure to pitch original stories, but not allowed any time to research these because we had to churn out clickbait. The promise of illusive staff contracts were used to manipulate people...

Activists from a squatted shelter in Shadwell - that has previously hosted asylum seekers left homeless by the government - had gone to Westminster to offer support. While they were out, riot police raided the @autonomous_sn , knocking people inside unconscious. I feel sick.

People are still stranded outside in Westminster. Another example of private companies like Clearsprings treating people with contempt and profiting off misery. We stand in solidarity with our neighbours. Everyone should be able to live in dignity. DM if you can make it down
