28th APR- 11AM. Remember all workers on #iwd2020 especially those in our industry who have died from #COVID19.

When owners of @HaysTravel moved themselves on to the national minimum wage.

“We said we’d work for nothing and then our payroll said they’d have to make us redundant in that case, so we changed our minds,” @The_TUC @TUCNorthern @lpcminimumwage

What are the full health and economic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic, and how effective have measures to tackle it been?

These are hard questions to answer, but new data confirms our fears that govt measures to protect workers don’t go far enough. https://t.co/hW0o4igXIi 1/

I have written to the Home Secretary @patel4witham asking for the long overdue response to the @ukhomeoffice Call for Evidence on abuse and violence towards shop staff. Our members are working hard serving their communities, often facing unbelievable abuse and violence.

As Diane Abbott steps down as Shadow Home Secretary we want to thank her for the unending support she has given us.
Here she is https://t.co/L7hnfbfXA6 reaffirming Labour's commitment to an Orgreave inquiry. One which we expect a Labour government to honour.
Thank you Diane
