No Air-conditioning for the passengers or Drivers. Any complaints must be leveled @TfL Not the bus driver.

Royal Mail Group profits £758m

Shareholder payout £400m

Paying TWO CEOs £2m +

Imposed 2% on loyal postal workers who kept the country connected during the pandemic.

They’re using Swiss banks whilst our members use foodbanks.

Ballot result Tuesday.

RT if you back us.

London bus drivers are being treated like a political football, we kept the city going during the pandemic, we kept the city going during the tube strikes, we are keeping London moving during extreme heat with no air con and reward is cuts, cuts and more cuts @UniteSharon

"Why is the governor of the @bankofengland, who's sitting pretty in his own scenario, only talking about pay rises causing inflation. Profits have a place, it's never spoken about.

"An employer who can pay should pay fair wages." @UniteSharon

How many companies rely on offshore banks while their employees rely on food banks? @UniteSharon @johnmcdonnellMP @KevinMustafa16 @georgegalloway @therealdojj

An employer who can pay should pay fair wages and @unitetheunion will fight for that.

[Sharon Graham @UniteSharon]

Slashing the pay of those who worked through the pandemic was abhorrent. I'm just not going to allow that to happen.

Any employer who can pay, who has made a profit out of workers, has to pay a proper fair wage.

Please explain” https://t.co/zvUfhcVmFG

#StopKillingBusDrivers FAO @MayorofLondon @SebDance ICYMI @ComfortDelGro urges @TfL Bus Drivers to "Stay Hydrated" BUT 21 Bus Routes operated by Metroline in London don't have any Toilets for Bus Drivers at 1 end. If there's NO PLACE to PEE, who's gonna "Drink more water"?🤔

[Sharon Graham @UniteSharon]

We are not going to let the rich and powerful take us for a ride again. They have one hand in our pocket and the other one up our back.

Not this time! We are not going to allow them to do it.

We must re-nationalise in certain areas to bring price's back down. This isn't about left or right it's about doing the right thing for everyone 💪

What we’re seeing now is the rebirth of the trade union movement.

That doesn’t mean a rehash of what we did in the 1970s — we have to be more organised than ever before!

[Tom Kearney @comadad]

FAO @UniteSharon @UniteLondonEast IMO @MoJGovUK Consultation represents good opportunity for London Bus Drivers’ Union to force @TfL @MayorofLondon to change Bus Contract Targets to Mitigate Fatigue so Changes to Motoring Offences Sentencing Guidelines don’t fall 100% on Drivers.
