UK millionaires say 'we want to pay more tax'. Why is that UK govts only listen to the rich who resent paying tax and decent wages? The rich can't feel secure whilst masses live in poverty. Poor people can't buy goods/services to boost the economy.

It's no time for political infighting. The stakes are too high. The UK Government must deliver for working people and fast. @rozfoyer.bsky.social / @heraldscotland.bsky.social

3 things Starmer could do instead of camps in old barracks that would actually WORK👇 1. Create safe, regulated routes to apply for asylum in the UK 2. Let asylum seekers WORK & support themselves 3. Fast track status for people from obviously unsafe countries metro.co.uk/2025/10/29/k...

Politicians, including those in the Labour UK Government at the upcoming budget, must take bold, decisive steps to redistribute wealth. Otherwise more defeats and despair will be coming down the line. Their inaction is a gift to the far-right. @rozfoyer.bsky.social on Scotland Tonight.

📈 The gender pay gap in Scotland has increased by a staggering 20% since last year. Employers need to take a look at themselves if they think they’re doing anywhere near enough to close the gap. #STUCWomen25 @rozfoyer.bsky.social / @hannahmargbrown.bsky.social / @heraldscotland.bsky.social

When women demand better, society moves forward.

Delighted that Linda will be speaking at the #ScotlandDemandsBetter rally on the 25th October in Edinburgh. She’ll do an amazing job representing the experiences of carers in Scotland @carersscotland.bsky.social

The days of politicians being all things to all people are over The people of Scotland are demanding better jobs with decent wages & conditions The Chancellor should be aware of that ahead of the budget @rozfoyer.bsky.social / @dailyrecord.co.uk.web.brid.gy www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politic...

Most pupils are well behaved but @mikecorbett1.bsky.social noted a rise in disruptive behaviour, especially after the Covid 19 pandemic. Restorative approaches are only “appropriate for low-level disruption, not for more serious issues" www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/scottis...

Scotland's workers and Scotland's trade union movement are demanding better from all politicans. Watch STUC General Secretary Roz Foyer's address this year's #SNP25 Conference in full on our YouTube channel here 👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDKI...

The STUC supports the right for the Scottish Parliament to decide on self-determination. But even the most ardent SNP supporter knows independence isn't a magic wand. We need real action in the here and now. @rozfoyer.bsky.social / @heraldscotland.bsky.social www.heraldscotland.com/politics/hol...

No wonder you got a standing ovation. Well done @rozfoyer.bsky.social www.thenational.scot/news/2553583...
