Tomorrow 40,000 BT and Openreach members take their 6th day of strike action.

They fight for fair pay against a company that made £1.3bn profit, gave £750m to shareholders and handed the CEO and Financial Officer nearly £6m pay packages.

Get behind them #FoodbankPhil

Today, we announce a new union at Activision Blizzard.

QA is currently an undervalued discipline in the games and software industries. We strive to
foster work environments where we are respected and compensated for our essential role in the
development process. 1/5

🎮UNI is raising concerns about the @Microsoft-@ATVI_AB merger.

By consolidating the industry, it may restrict the job market for workers—especially if they don't have the collective bargaining protections like those that @CWAUnion & @WeAreGWA fight for.
