UAW Statement in Solidarity with the Fight for Justice in Minnesota

The UAW stands in solidarity with the people of Minnesota, including hundreds of UAW members, who are standing up and fighting back against the federal government’s abuses and attacks on the working class.

The UAW stands for freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, and human dignity no matter where you were born, what language you speak, or the color of your skin. We will not tolerate a government that attacks working class people’s constitutional and human rights.

It is the working class that makes society run, and it is the working class that can shut it down if need be. On January 23rd, working class people will demonstrate that power in Minnesota, and the UAW has their back.

“When I was in justice, my ultimate vision for that part of the criminal justice system was to achieve, by means of AI and technology, what Jeremy Bentham tried to do with his Panopticon. That is that the eyes of the state can be on you at all times.”

The U.K. appeared to lay the groundwork for approving China’s new embassy in London — a decision that risks driving a deeper wedge both within the ruling Labour party and with the U.S. administration. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/01/20/world/politics/uk-groundwork-chinese-embassy/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #china #uk #labour #us

England’s contested 1,100-year anniversary passed with little public interest, reflecting a broadly unbothered national identity, even as a small but vocal far-right English nationalism gains visibility. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/01/19/world/being-properly-english/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #uk #england #tommyrobinson #donaldtrump #nigelfarage #mikenesbitt #georgeorwell #johnmajor #rishisunak #labour #tories #reformuk #conservativeparty #ulsterunionistparty #maga #englishdefenceleague

Britain's so-called Brexit wars dominated parliament for years. Now the Labour government is bracing for new battles as it eyes legislation to move closer to the European Union. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/01/18/world/politics/uk-labour-eu-reset-fight/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #keirstarmer #uk #labour #reform #eu #brexit

The big distraction is Venezuela and Greenland - meanwhile #Israel is busy doing everything it can to remove #Gaza and a state of #Palestine from ever existing. What’s really frustrating is how deeply involved in all of this the current UK #Labour administration is.

@smaurizi Ah, so that’s why #labour have handed over our NHS data to these vipers. Are we doomed to always be led by donkeys? The latter day donkeys have found a new religion with a false god called Ay Eye.

@AnarchoNinaWrites Don't forget taking down #Labour politicians who might actually back labor, by any means available — like smearing #Corbyn as antisemitic. That was the issue that turned David Graeber against them.

The general case, the unifying pattern: the #Guardian has a history of winning a Left audience's trust with progressive writing on topics they perceive as inessential — then abusing that trust to support reactionary positions on the issues they perceive as most essential. The pattern is too consistent to be accidental.

"Undoing Adam's Decisions"

See Labour, that's what you should have done on day one. Instead you took freebies and did whatever the Establishment wanted you to, and nobodies bills have come down and nobody feels any sort of 'change' even after 18 months.
If Labour don't ditch Starmer and make a serious turnaround then the UK will fall to fascism the next election.
You have to give people something to vote for.

Another test to see how stupid #Starmer and the current #Labour administration think the electorate are .

If he thinks he can water down proposed requirements to include batteries with new build homes and no one will notice he’s the short term thinking fool.

Most social housing tenants question why they are currently offered #solar panels but no battery storage.

Form #labour #unions. #Solidarity is the only way to make industries treat workers better. They'll never respect us, but (say it with me): #WhenWeFightWeWin

Do you remember when Labour did this during the Blair/Brown days and it signified the end of the Blair/Brown days?
