"Our campaign is bigger than the bill; it is about culture change, it is about ensuring that this government fulfils its promises, that outsourcing becomes a thing of the past, and that insourcing becomes a clear policy focus. We remain committed and united as a movement in the fight to return our Facility Management members to the public sector and ensure we have strong public services for all." - Lori Holmes, PCS, speaking at the Employments Rights Bill Rally in London today.

The only time in history we had decent living conditions for ordinary people was when we taxed the very rich. These two things are connected.

PCS has vowed to campaign with allies to oppose the cruel welfare cuts announced by work and pensions secretary Liz Kendall today, a blatant attack on the most vulnerable in our society.

In a ballot that closed on Friday (28 February), PCS members working as security guards for G4S on the DWP contract have voted 97.2% in favour of taking more strike action in their dispute.
The members who work in Jobcentres have already taken over six months of strike action in their long-running dispute over pay, terms and conditions.

"Since 2019 £8m of public funding has been given to 13 arms companies who have supplied weapons and equipment to Israel during its illegal occupation and bombardment of Gaza and the West Bank. Not a single penny of public funding should go to any company profiting from the displacement and genocide of the Palestinian people." - Lynsey Morgan, SEC

PCS is to enter into intensive talks for 2 weeks from Monday (3) aimed at resolving our long-standing disputes with government contractors OCS, ISS and G4S over pay, terms and conditions.
Planned strike action will be suspended from 3 to 17 March to allow for negotiations.

40 #PCS members at the Parliamentary Health Service Ombudsman are taking targeted strike action this week and are on the picket line at Citygate in Manchester.
Phil Whitehead said: "I'm upset to be here. I've never been on strike in my life. There's enough money to pay overtime but not a decent pay rise."

@sherbet_01 @RupertLowe10 Tell me you don’t know what a civil servant is without telling me you don’t know what a civil servant is. 🤡

[PCS Young Members @PCSYMN]

Paid pensions. Issued passports and driving licenses. Collected taxes. Worked in prisons, museums and Royal households. Registered ownership of properties, served as ushers in our courts…

Long and short of it is, Rupert, we keep this country going.

What have you been up to?

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

Let's send an email to the entire British civil service with the question - what did you do last week?

The answer for thousands?

Sod all.

Brutal cuts are required. Afuera!

@GenealogyJuden @wizard_waterloo @Crampsam @implausibleblog No, I wouldn’t, because the UK has signed up to the 1951 Refugee Convention that stipulates any person can apply for asylum in any country.

[PCS Young Members @PCSYMN]

@xeode @wizard_waterloo @Crampsam @implausibleblog The choice isn’t, or should not be, “let people die/suffer persecution” or “build housing.” We can, and should, do both.
