Finnish Employment Minister Arto Satonen doesn't seem to know what politics is, or strikes, or labour bargaining. Because any action to affect a political decision is politics, so any strike is political. Or maybe he want to restrict the rights of workers to nullify unions and workers

The overnight #strikes on 85 targets, which used B-1 bombers flown from the #UnitedStates, were part of what U.S. officials say would be a multiday campaign at regional targets linked to #Iran.
“Our response began today. It will continue at times & places of our choosing,” #POTUS #Biden said in a statement Friday. “Let all those who might seek to do us harm know this: If you harm an American, we will respond.”

People on the #left: Don’t be fooled by right-wing claims that #unions & #strikes are ”anti-market”. On the contrary, they exist precisely because big business is anti-market.

In a #market #economy, everyone sets their price. A market that offers better working conditions for skilled workers, moves workers where they are happier.

But in a #monopoly, there is no option. For a worker bound to a location (due to family etc), the local factory is a de-facto monopoly.

Pro-market vs pro-business.

Joe ’s Air on Are and

The Biden administration has chosen to open up a new front in Yemen instead of pressuring Israel to stop its onslaught against Gaza. Air strikes are unlikely to deter attacks on Red Sea shipping, but they could undercut a deal to end Yemen’s bloody civil war.

UCU members at Capital City College Group (CCCG), London's largest further education college group, begin eight days of strike action today in their dispute over pay.

CCCG has already seen three days of strikes in what began as a national dispute over low pay and poor working conditions. With 60 colleges having settled with pay awards of up to 10% CCCG is an isolated employer and must settle the dispute.

can't come up with anything pithy for the new year because am with @majorlinux:

fuck resolutions.
i want revolution.

may 2024 manifest all the energy into a year of saying YES to power to the people

may 2024 make it too costly to be a moderate good cop to the billionaire funded christonazis

may 2024 manifest, indeed, that every billionaire is a policy failure and have no right to exist

may 2024 be the year of NO to and

This is an interesting thread about The Skylab 4 "strike" and the controversy / confusion around it, which seems to survive even to this day: https://mastodon.social/@RustyBertrand/111669716431455702

I haven't done any detailed research into this, but the fact that it spurs such passionate discussion so long after the fact says something powerful about #unions and #strikes, I think.

Check out the thread, read some of the referenced articles, and see what you think!

“What grinds our gears is that a large corporation thinks it can come here and set the rules on the Swedish labor market,” says Trade Union Confederation president Susanna Gideonsson. “To think you can waltz in here as a feudal lord and think a whole country should adapt to one’s whims is just wrong.”
