@KathyParr101 The current #tubestrike has nothing to do with pay, however, a decent pension in retirement should be the norm for all workers.
Punching down until we’re all left with nothing is a peculiar contemporary trait that will only lead to the return of the poor house and destitution.

Congratulations to the more than 10,000 @nynurses who spent weeks on the picket line fighting to win a fair deal that protects patients, respects nurses, and strengthens care across our city.

When working people organize, they win.

@matflusk Knew you’d know. Not mentioned in any of the user guides in the app on rider safety 🤔

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

There's power in a union.

@ShellyAsquith The Musicians’ Union has a Parental Grant paid (on application within 6 months of birth/adoption) to members who have been members for more than one full year - which is roughly equivalent to a year’s membership subs.

[Paul Nowak @nowak_paul]

How many of the Tory & Lib Dem peers who voted against decent rights at work have been on a zero hours contract?

Or sacked unfairly.

Or struggled to pay bills because they didn’t get sick pay?

It’s easy to vote against rights for workers when you don’t have skin in the game.

Paul wants to know, why is Nigel Farage on the side of bosses over workers like him?

British.

If billionaires can afford fleets of private yachts.

And day trips into space.

And weddings that shut down Venice.

They can pay a bit more tax.

[Musicians' Union @WeAreTheMU]

The government has responded to the @CommonsCMS recommendations for the grassroots live sector, and has agreed that the industry should deliver a blanket levy on arena tickets. This would offer much-needed support to artists, promoters & venues.

We welcome this news.

The @WelshNatOpera orchestra needs your help! Keep the WNO as a full-time company, protect jobs and secure the company’s future.
Write to your MP or MS and ask them to help protect one of the jewels in the Welsh culture crown.

When workers organise and win better working conditions, the majority of twitter replies to the news is often in the jealous / angry vibes realm rather than the - “how inspiring! maybe I should join / organise within / become active within a trade union!?”

Join a union. 💪

I would have probably mentioned that Dyson owns 36,000 acres of farmland in England which was previously liable for zero inheritance tax

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

Kemi Badenoch is one of the most nasty & divisive figures in British politics.

From downplaying racism to Islamophobic remarks like "not all cultures are equally valid" & questioning why Sadiq Khan gets a “free pass” for being Muslim, her election marks a shift to the far-right.

[Simeon Scheuber-Rush @Schubone]

@JakMalonee Incredible news! Congratulations!

[Kim Johnson @KimJohnsonMP]

As part of #NationalAlbumDay, I visited Kempston Street Studios to celebrate the very best of British music and the incredible legacies of Great British groups.

Thanks to Chris and the team who talked me through the development process of Blossoms’ new Number 1 album, Gary 🎶

[Musicians' Union @WeAreTheMU]

Government has published its Employment Rights Bill!

We are delighted to see proposals to strengthen employment rights and security at work for all workers, including the self-employed
