With the death of #QueenElizabeth, not only has a monarch died, but also the last shreds of credibility of British Trade Unionism as union leaders call off widespread popular strike action to doff their caps to the ruling class to bare their nationalist souls and shed tears.
Workers respond to the announcements aghast that their struggles and sacrifices come so cheaply and easily in the midst of the worst #CostOfLivingCrisis as union bureaucrats reveal their true allegiance.

Join with the workers of the world in the IWA-RFC!

On #LongCOVID: “The full magnitude of this tragedy finds expression not only in the level of death, but in the far greater number of people who have been infected and now suffer from long-lasting symptoms known as Long COVID.” @LauraMiers @loscharlos @ahandvanish @patientled 3/
