The Green Party doesn’t take that money. We answer to you - and to the future of our planet.
Vote Green on Thursday. 💚

NEW🚨| 9.6 million workers set to benefit from stronger sick pay as of today.
* 1.2 million workers - majority low-paid women - get access to statutory sick for the first time.
* 8.4 million will get sick pay from the first day of illness - instead of having to wait four days.
Hundreds of thousands of 18-20 year olds are getting a £1500 pay rise as minimum rates increase today.
That’s more money in your pocket, thanks to a Labour Government and the New Deal for Working People. 💷➡️👖
Today, the minimum wage rates go up, giving a pay rise to 2.7 million people.
This is good news for working people – now let’s get on and deliver the New Deal for Working People in full. 🌹
2025 was the year the labour movement and Labour Government together delivered the Employment Rights Act.
2026 will be the year it starts to deliver change for workers.
This year will see day one sick pay, repeal of the 2016 TU Act, improved recognition rights, the Fair Work Agency, day one paternity leave, protection against harassment at work, union access rights... and more coming into force.
Happy New Year!
