Saira Weiner is an activist with a long record of demonstrating the courage and commitment to democracy needed for a strong union fight back. And that fightback is very much needed. Vote Saira. #Saira4UCUGS #Peter4VP #ucuRISING #Solidarity #RespectFE #ucustrikes #GazaCeasefireNow

Lies are a tactic of war and Israel is well trained

Our leaders have always told lies to try to justify their wars. For Israel, its lies don’t even need to be barely believable

Saira's record of campaigning for members’ interests speaks for itself. She's an anti-racist, anti-fascist, pro-Palestinian grassroots campaigner. For a democratically run campaigning union vote for Saira. #Saira4UCUGS #Peter4VP #ucuRISING #RespectFE #ucustrikes #GazaCeasefireNow

Post-16 needs a leader who will: • lead them to victory • do what they say they're going to do • respect the decisions of Congress, NEC and BDMs. I know Sarah will do this. #Saira4UCUGS #Peter4VP #ucuRISING #Solidarity #RespectFE #ucustrikes #GazaCeasefireNow
