Solidarity with all of our members on picket lines up and down the country today taking a stand for fair pay.

They want to know where the transport secretary is and why he’s not working to resolve the dispute.

Thanks to everyone who has come out to support ASLEF members in Manchester (where Tory Party Conference is taking place) taking a stand against the government’s attempts to push our industry into decline. #WheresHarper

Solidarity to @RMTunion members striking

[RMT @RMTunion]

On the day @RMTunion revealed that taxpayers have been used to fund the rail dispute to the tune of £1bn, here's Rail Minister @HuwMerriman admitting in JANUARY that it would've been cheaper to settle the dispute!

And all along we thought it was because of permanent embarrassment from being such a vile right wing tw@.

[Luke Akehurst @lukeakehurst]

In my case I'm "gammon faced" because it's a side effect of the life threatening neurological disease I survived in 2009, which also caused my disability. Thanks for your concern Kerry-Anne.

Legs out, sunscreen on, still here picketing outside Ashford @ASLEFunion @OfStrikes
