A functioning aviation sector is vital for global connectivity & jobs in our town.

It must be protected through and beyond the #Coronavirus pandemic.

Great to see the Shadow @UKLabour Transport team pushing for more action. #TransportQuestions

Petition: Extend furlough scheme for the UK Aviation sector to help stop redundancies https://t.co/gnKx9cDXwu

[Catherine McKinnell MP @CMcKinnellMP]

UK aviation & thousands of workers in have been abandoned by the Govt in this pandemic. Regional airports like @NCLairport are being squeezed & our calls for sector specific support to protect jobs keep falling on deaf ears. Today Parliament is urging Ministers again to act now

[Alex Macheras @AlexInAir]

She’s absolutely spot on. Well said, former Prime Minister @Theresa_May 👏🏽 ✈️

[Transport Committee @TransportCttee]

[Abena Oppong-Asare MP @abenaopp]

@HuwMerriman and I will be leading on a joint debate on the Aviation Sector at 1pm. It's vital the Gov. addresses issues facing the sector to protect thousands of workers at risk of job losses.

More Tory MPs calling for extension of job retention scheme. When will @RishiSunak start listening to his own benches? #JRS2NOW #SaveUKaviation

[Unite the union: join a union @unitetheunion]

New aviation minister @robertcourts responds to the debate with no idea of when the #aviation recovery plan will be published let alone implemented, yet insists the government remains committed to the UK remaining "an aviation nation".

How so, minister?

[Unite the union: join a union @unitetheunion]

.@SeemaMalhotra1 sets out a series of measures the government must take to keep our aviation industry flying and insists that extension to furlough must be conditional on no worker being forced to sign a new contract on reduced terms.

Stop #FireAndRehire

[Unite the union: join a union @unitetheunion]

.@SarahOwen_ The government's promise to do #WhateverItTakes can't wait any longer. It must step up now with sector specific support for the industry and for towns like Luton, before any more lives are ruined.

#JRS2NOW
#SaveUKAviation

[Unite the union: join a union @unitetheunion]

.@GavNewlandsSNP - the Chancellor @RishiSunak said back in March there would be #aviation sector specific support. What's left of the sector is still waiting and so far has seen nothing. There is a real danger that the flood of redundancies will become a tsunami.

#SaveUKAviation

[Unite the union: join a union @unitetheunion]

"The government hasn't quite got the message of the importance of the aviation sector" – @theresa_may on the need for urgent support for the #aviation sector and the need for airports to be allowed to test passengers.

#SaveUKAviation

[Unite the union: join a union @unitetheunion]

.@meaglemp – "We must have a sector specific deal for #aviation", highlighting the human cost of the pandemic at regional airports, including Liverpool John Lennon in her constituency, where 50% of jobs have been lost.

#SaveUKAviation

[Unite the union: join a union @unitetheunion]

Another Conservative MP on his feet to demand his government supports our #aviation industry.

@simonjamesjupp – "We won't be able to level up our regions if we level off regional connectivity."

#SaveUKAviation

[Rachel Hopkins MP @rach_hopkins]

As well as co-sponsoring today's debate, I have written to the new Aviation Minister to request a meeting to discuss #Luton's aviation sector.

As his first act as Aviation Minster, Robert Courts MP should choose to save thousands of jobs in our town and across the UK.

[Unite the union: join a union @unitetheunion]

@JimfromOldham - Why when government financial support was given to airlines wasn't there conditionality on protecting jobs?

Even @RishiSunak has said he wants a deal. So where is the plan?

There is a new minister now in place, please step up to the plate.

#SaveUKAviation

[Unite Politics @UnitePolitics]

Our Assistant GS @DianaHolland_ and national officer Oliver Richardson briefing @UKLabour MPs on urgent situation facing aviation sector and the enormous l job losses facing it ahead of aviation debate tomorrow ✈️#SOS4Jobs

[Sam Tarry @SamTarry]

Great to see so many MPs join the @unitetheunion briefing ahead of the #aviation debate in Parliament tomorrow.

We must redouble our efforts to protect jobs and stop worker exploitation.

#BAStopThinkAgain

[Ed Miliband @Ed_Miliband]

The government is pushing the UK towards a furlough cliff-edge putting many jobs at risk. They've got to see reason & extend the furlough scheme, like other countries have done. The crisis isn't over. Cutting support now is both morally wrong, and will make us economically weaker
