come to light that you’re hosting an event with Iain Dale, in Sept. This is completely unacceptable. Dale has published a book for Norman Bettison, who should need no explanation, in this city.
Can you confirm that you’ll look into removing him from the event?…
Kopites wondering how the Chris Lawler operation fund is going will be pleased that his family have reached the target needed.
Well done all for helping a Club legend in need

…if Dale is not removed from this event, there’ll be a campaign to boycott this venue as the people stands in solidarity with victims/families & survivors of that fateful day & the decades of fighting for justice that followed.
Do what is right or start a fight
#DontBuyTheSun
It is widely known that Bettison was a major part in the cover up of the Hillsborough disaster, and organising the altering and tampering of witness/victim statements to absolve the South Yorkshire Police of any blame, instead placing the blame solely on LFC fans and the City…
…of Liverpool suffered disgraceful levels of sectarian hate and derision as a result of Bettison working with the media to make the people of the city appear feckless, violent and unruly. The article in The S

Brew one my house next time you’re in Kirkby mate.
Stand with your local Asda worker’s show some support and solidarity. Head down. Don’t shop at Asda today. Pleaded continuing support.
A defeat to any worker is a defeat to us all. We must defend each other
Asda workers are being threatened with the sack unless they sign a punishing contract.
Today Asda employees are protesting at stores the length and breadth of the country to demand a better deal.
Will you stand with us? 👇

Still can’t believe John hasn’t mentioned the 14,000 killed in the Donbass over the last 8 years, setting a precedent for the present crisis.
I’m starting to think the BBC and/or John is fetishising the present dispute by commenting on the present sense only. Really doesn’t help
@MichaelLCrick
That’s because she’s an actual trade unionist with the workers intentions at heart and the Labour Party is a capitalist, pro business party, as described by Rachael Reeves.
Up the socialist party, up the workers! ✊️✊️
Solidarity with Sharon.
The Nazis never saw themselves as villains.
You look at the horrible atrocities they committed and you think they MUST have known they were the monsters.
But they didn't.
Instead, the Nazis thought they themselves were the VICTIMS.

So proud to stand for the right policies & principles, in Kirkby. Rather get 1 vote doing the right thing than 1000 votes pretending to be the Tory’s 2nd eleven
Join the fight for:
👉A new senior school, dentists & doctors surgery,
👉rent controls,
👉NO cuts or council tax rises
Last away of the season, last away for Klopp too. What a journey he’s took us on for 9 years.
Plus a thought and raising a glass to those who are no longer with us. The fight goes on, comrades.
Those were the days my friends ✊️❤️❤️✊️

Just a reminder to the world that Liverpool still says, Refugees welcome here.

The fact that you associate dropping a complaint as evidence is the most desperate thing I’ll hear today.
Back out in Everton for

election campaign.
Time for change.
Time for anti-austerity councillors in Liverpool. Let’s stand up to the tories, not appease them. 🔥🗳
Northwood results in. Immensely proud to put the socialist program out there. Buzzing with that.
Buzzing that we saw an independent gain from the red tories.
Well done Kirkby. A proud day. ❤️✊️✊️
Tory’s defecting to labour is a clear sign
@UKLabour
is no longer a vehicle for progressive change/policies.
It’s time to look for other socialist candidates in your area.
See if

has politics you believe in. They’ve taken 46 of corbyns policies.
Try someone else
We’re going to be honest:
Too many Leftists lack an understanding for what Capitalism is, not as an abstract socioeconomic system, but as a MODE OF PRODUCTION.

24 million Intending to not pay. Labour urged people to pay it. The militant tendency organised the working class and advised on how to approach the issue.
Great work by the tendency
Poll Tax Riot: London: 31st March 1990. Probably the last time that the British people rose up and effectively destroyed government policy. The riot in central London did much to contribute to the downfall of Margaret Thatcher, who resigned as PM on 28th November the same year.

Nothing less.

A fiery and passionate speech which has held Labour and the tories to account and the right man to lead workers into the struggle in the coming years.
They’re coming….taking all our jobs!
They’re taking us back to Victorian ways, these unions? Oh you mean when workers are expected to work for gruel and a bed and be grateful for the mansion the boss has!

Do you like Bettison and Kelvin Mackenzie, col?
We don’t let Nazis march through this city, why would we let rats who profit from the torment thrown at this city, printing and repeating the lies from SYP.
The event could have gone ahead without that working class-hating Tory.

Unless we seek to build a new electoral challenge to put a stop to this, we’re doomed for it to continue.
these videos become a vehicle for anger and nothing more.
We need to support socialist candidates standing in our areas. Even if it simply forces labour to do right.
Labour loyalists crying over the NHS privatisation under the tories need to take a look in the mirror and decide what they love more, the NHS or the Labour Party!
A serious choice to make here

What’s the next piece of conjecture your ‘cut making, Tory apologising’ team are thinking up?
On the LFC flag situation.
The club take the stance based on UEFA rules-we all understand and expect it, as we expect this from a club willing to overcharge fans. It is on the fans to show our contempt for UEFA rules and hypocrisy by taking the flags regardless

Calling out NATO & remembering the US-backed coup in Ukraine a decade ago, which put arms in Nazi hands killing natives in the Donbass, does NOT mean you’re pro Putin.
The US pushed for this to happen to prevent energy pipelines, too!

With respect, this is exactly the Labour Party that I’ve always known. Goes back to Kinnock. It’s also why I’ve never wanted to join it.
New party for the working class is needed. ASAP

Kirkby comrades. If you can share my poster to those you know that live in Northwood, it would be a massive help.
Plus if you/they can throw in to the fighting fund, so that we can fight these battles, that would be great, too.

In 80's there was 30,000 working for the liv council, now under 3,000.

The fact that this agitates the petit bourgeois, and liberal media is exactly vindicating Sharon’s decision. Bakers union disaffiliated from Labour too, and Ian Hodgson’s speech is also fantastic at the rally.
Up the workers.

what for. I emotionally needed a blowout.
But I’ve woken up angry at how vindicated, the genuine left in this City, has been smeared and blocked from the political stage.
The cocktail of neo liberalism and self serving on display!
Was a fine day to leaflet yesterday.
If you’re around Kirkby towny today, come to the campaign stall. Get a poster for your window, and get a Klopp hug before the big game. 🗳🗳✊️✊️
It's been brilliant to see so much industrial action in the first few weeks of the year; bin workers, scaffolders, bus drivers, council staff, hospital cleaners, and porters, to name a few - inspiring fights for better pay, pensions and working conditions.
