One year since @RMTunion began industrial action.

In that time, we've had 3 Prime Ministers, 4 Chancellors and 3 Transport Secretaries.

The Government's own Rail minister admits settling the dispute is cheaper than allowing strikes to continue. £5 billion has been squandered.

Every six months or so, I fall prey to the mysterious malady known as 'Letterbox Knuckle'. Scientists are at a loss as to why this affliction only affects political party volunteers and not Royal Mail workers

Orient Express to axe British section of journey due to Brexit border controls, while world tourists are dropping the UK leg of European trips. But there's no Turks taking "our" jobs, so that's ok then. https://t.co/12CeeIiO7T

Once you've built an incinerator, you have to feed the beast. They're not compatible with a reduce, reuse, recycle culture

[Friends of the Earth Scotland 🌎 @FoEScot]

New stats reveal that Scotland recycled less & sent more waste to incineration in 2021 than 2018 (the last year that was reported)

Only 56% of waste was recycled.

It was a cold and wet one on the picket line at Waverley this morning, but it's really warmed my heart to discover that one railway boss increased his remuneration by 275% last year

[RMT @RMTunion]

🎥 Train operators to make profits of £412 million by September funded by the taxpayer. Meanwhile, bosses at 7 rail companies have awarded themselves pay rises of between 15- 275% whilst workers have been subject to a pay freeze.
