Labor needs solidarity but the pudding-brains in the trade unions voted for MAGA leadership and for Trump. No presence from any trade unions in support of federal employee unions at any No Kings protests that I saw. The cancer is a generational cancer rooted in racism, xenophobia, and regular old stupidity. Labor will always lose when bigotry is allowed to exist without ridicule and isolation.

    No worker should be overworked.

    Shout out to my manager for shifting us all to 12 hour shifts with no notice and restricting use of the break rooms, while reiterating that we’re all replaceable

    While that might be the case, I don't think it's relevant to London bus drivers.

    You’re correct to check me on that. I was being very US-centric in my comment. Like a typical American, I made a conflict in another country about us. I have no idea if the other trade unions in the UK stand in solidarity with their labor brethren.

    Apologies
