We want to sincerely congratulate Nigel Farage.

For defeating a man with a bin on his head.

In a by-election that he called.

To avoid questioning over receiving an unreported £5 million pounds.

From an offshore, crypto-bro billionaire.

That hasn’t achieved anything.

As he can still face an inquiry over the donation.

Meaning this entire farce has been a complete waste of time.

Nigel – well done.

Campaigners take beer named 'Burnham's Brew' to Parliament in furious protest https://t.co/FoWRYWsAFX

Less furious, more deeply irritated and concerned, but nonetheless Govt must act to save the British Bottling Industry.

🚨For too long, women working at Kirklees Council in West Yorkshire have been short-changed in their pay!

GMB is determined to put this right 👇

We agree with the PM - care workers should be the best paid in society.

Without them there is no transformation of care.

Their voices must be central as the PM leads the changes social care desperately needs 🧑‍⚕️

Young workers aren't waiting their turn. They're organising now.

Brilliant to bring young GMB London members together to build power in every workplace.

[Craig Thompson @CraigTGMB]

A win for organising and for the GMB

Ten billion pounds of taxpayer's money was wasted during COVID on useless PPE.

Ten billion.

Ministers threw away taxpayer money, lined their pals' pockets and partied when we were in lockdown.

All as workers died and care homes turned into morgues.

Lessons must be learned.

More than 300 security guards at Asda are facing redundancy.

The process is a shambles.

Mitie - who employs the workers - and Asda need to rethink.

[Gary Smith @GMBGarySmith]

GMB’s coastguard membership is growing every day, and it was great to spend time with some of them at Durham Miners’ Gala.

Coastguard Rescue Officers perform a vital role keeping the public safe.

They deserve full union recognition and pay justice.

GMB and Power NI Renew Recognition Agreement 🤝

GMB Union and Power NI have had a longstanding partnership over many years, and have now renewed their recognition agreement to bring it up to date, marking a positive step in strengthening workplace relations.

[GMB London Region @GMBLondonRegion]

This is the reality of outsourcing in modern Britain.

Our members cleaned Parliament for years. They turned up before dawn, did the job with pride and asked for nothing more than to keep working. The Churchill Group looked at loyal, experienced GMB members and saw money to save.

The work has not gone anywhere. Parliament still needs cleaning.

Some of the workers have been made disposable, treated as a cost to cut rather than the people who kept the place running.

That is what outsourcing does. It hands the profit to the contractor and the pain to the workforce.

Our members deserve better and GMB is standing with them every step of the way.

It’s almost time.

See you tomorrow, Marras!

Almost half of coastguards would be forced to reduce or stop lifesaving work if pay cut plans are carried out.

These volunteers are heroes.

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency must U-turn.

[GMB North East, Yorkshire & Humber @GMB_CAMPAIGNS]

🚨 Breaking: The government is removing remuneration for Coastguard Rescue Officers who bravely save lives on our UK coastlines all year round.🚁

These changes will threaten to destroy our coastguard services and threaten lives.
