Still processing today's incredible news from Belarus. So many people free who we feared could remain behind bars die many more years. Viasna & @liberecophr.bsky.social have started an emergency fund to help get the former political prisoners back on their feet in exile: libereco.org/en/deutschla...

One year ago, workers at the Sumithra Hasalaka factory in Sri Lanka were concluding their 75 day strike for better wages & their union rights & going back to work, with the promise of arbitration. One year on, arbitration still hasn't brought them anything & workers still struggle on poverty wages.

This week marked the 12th anniversary of the Rana Plaza collapse. It remains astonishing that although (under immense campaign pressure) brands improved building safety, but failed to address the fact that people entered an unsafe building because they weren't organised & were earning poverty wages.
