Raising the voice of working people and changing work for the better in the North West

[TUC North West @TUCNorthWest]

Today we joined @AQA_Unison members on their picket line in Manchester to spread solidarity and support their campaign for fair pay. People work to live, they don't live to work. #FairDaysWork #FairDaysPay

It was fantastic to join @unitetheunion members fighting for the right to have their union recognised outside the #KimptonClocktowerHotel. Local Cllr and Unite member Sam Wheeler spoke in support and promised to raise his concerns with Manchester City Council. #PowerInAUnion

.@unitetheunion members at the Kimpton Clock Tower Hotel in Manchester are out today fighting for their right to organise collectively. Come and show your support today!

[TUC North West @TUCNorthWest]

The message is loud and clear at Salford Royal. NCA! Fair pay!

SOLIDARITY ✊️
Today, @NCAlliance_NHS staff were joined on the picket line at Salford Royal by @unisontheunion's @AndreaEganGS and NW Regional Sec Peter Middleman, @The_TUC's @nowak_paul and @JayMcKenna87 and Salford MP @RLong_Bailey.

We’re more powerful when we stand together

Excellent to see the united strength of the Trade Union Movement supporting #NCA @NorthWestUNISON members at Salford Royal with the General Secretaries of @unisontheunion and @The_TUC backing their campaign for #FairPay for staff in theatres.

It was fantastic to have @nowak_paul and @AndreaEganGS in the North West supporting UNISON Northern Care Alliance Branch at Salford Royal during their dispute for fair pay. Workers win when they organise together! #NCAGiveFairPay #TogetherWeAreStrong

People should be able to pay their bills without going broke.

The energy price cap has shifted which means households across the UK are starting to feel the effects of Trump's illegal war on their wallets.

Amy's been working on proposals for emergency energy bill discounts, funded by a windfall tax on banks, so that ordinary people are better shielded.

STRIKE: Theatre Staff at NCA take day 2 of strike action over being paid the correct rate of pay when they cover staff shortages & work extra. Colleagues in Critical Care have won their campaign on the same issue. NCA need to do the right thing & not pay less when they want more.

[TUC North West @TUCNorthWest]

Good to see the People’s History Museum as the venue for @andyburnham’s speech today - a place that tells the story of the people who have shaped places and politics through protest.

There’s some great exhibitions amongst the displays, that speak as much to today as history.

Why would an offshore crypto CEO give Nigel Farage's Reform £25 million?

[TUC North West @TUCNorthWest]

An absolutley wonderful picket line today outside #SalfordRoyal supporting theatre staff fighting the #NCA for fair pay. The vibes, the solidarity and the tunes were fantastic. @NorthWestUNISON members will be back next week and again and again until victory! Solidarity ✊️

[TUC North West @TUCNorthWest]

The message has been heard loud and clear by bosses at the #NCA. Theatre staff demand fair pay! @NorthWestUNISON @unisontheunion

[TUC North West @TUCNorthWest]

The sun is out, the energy is high and we're spreading solidarity at #SalfordRoyal #NCAGiveFairPay

[UNISON North West @NorthWestUNISON]

*BREAKING* UNISON Members working in Theatres from Salford Royal, Royal Oldham, Rochdale Infirmary & Fairfield General in Bury are taking their first day of strike action today. Members are done being paid less for covering staff shortages.

[TUC North West @TUCNorthWest]

A fantastic turn out from @NorthWestUNISON members at Salford Royal fighting to be paid Agenda For Change rates for overtime. #OurSkillsDontPayTheBills #NCAGiveFairPay

[TUC North West @TUCNorthWest]

As we say in the North West "Its cracking the flags out there". Official guidance exists for a *minimum* working temperature of 16°C, but there is no law to guide bosses on what a maximum should be. Sign here to protect working people feeling the heat!

He has that sentence the wrong way round.

Good things can happen - if you fight for it.

After campaigning from @pcs_union, today the government announced that thousands of outsourced low-paid workers are to be brought in house. They will see a massive improvement to their pay and conditions.
