Wolverhampton now has five weapon surrender bins, with the newest St Peter's Collegiate Church. The safe and secure metal boxes enable people to dispose of knives, blades and other dangerous objects. (1/2)
What a day. 18 days of strike action, relentless intimidation, gaslighting and demoralisation.
Royal Mail thought the union was done.
In response our members have delivered the biggest ever turnout in a national ballot.
No words.
Now we must win the dispute.
Why we strike:
📉 Real wages falling at fastest rate since records began
💷 Average worker lost £20,000 between 2008 and 2021
🏚 8.3 million in poverty despite living in a working household
🛢 1 in 2 adults struggle to cover energy and housing bills
#EnoughIsEnough
People become firefighters because they want to serve their community. Our aim is to resolve this dispute without a strike.
We've given the employers & government 10 days to come up with a decent offer. If they don't, we will cal the first Uk-wide fire strike on pay since 2003
💥 This is huge 💥
The numbers speak for themselves.
🗳️ After more than a decade of falling pay, firefighters have voted by an overwhelming margin for strike action. 🗳️
We stand firm. ✊
🚨NEW: Firefighters have voted overwhelmingly to go on strike.
📉 Salaries cut in real terms by £4,000 since 2009
🚒 Central funding for fire services cut by 40% in real terms over past decade
👩🚒 1 in 5 firefighter jobs cut since 2010
RT if you're with our firefighters 👊
The Tories are introducing their new anti-strike legislation in Parliament today.
Nurses, teachers and others could be sacked for exercising their basic democratic right to strike.
Another authoritarian act by this Government.
Let's build the biggest campaign to defeat this!
Yesterday, the government invited unions in for talks.
Today, it is legislating to override their right to strike.
Any government that forces people to work against their will has no interest in reasonable dialogue. Stop posturing and give workers the pay rise they deserve.
