"If you're a city worker working an 18 hour day", you're being exploited and should #joinaunion
Meanwhile, here's why the #tubestrike is actually happening 🔽
This weekend, delegates from across the UK to the TUC Young Workers conference joined the call to oppose the governments extreme proposal to give the police new powers to effectively ban protests based on their ‘cumulative disruption.’
DLR cleaners don’t want to strike on New Year’s Eve — but Bidvest Noonan has refused to even talk since the last strike.
Let’s be clear:
• Bidvest Noonan is responsible
• DLR operator KAD is responsible
• TfL is responsible

Solidarity with TfL and Underground workers in @RMTUnion facing deportation after their jobs were reclassified as “unskilled”.
There’s no such thing as unskilled work, just low-paid work.
A shameful way to treat migrant workers who keep London running.
Proud to stand in solidarity with RMT members outside the Home Office this morning.
Labour’s visa rule changes are an extension of the Hostile Environment and an attack on workers who keep our country running.
We stand with all workers and demand protection for those affected.
Delighted to help you get this straight, Camilla.
The Tube is operating with 2,000 fewer staff than before the pandemic so our members are working more extreme shifts (4 am starts, 1 am finishes) to keep London moving.
Fatigue and understaffing are a dangerous mix.
🔊 Listen to @RMTunion London Transport Regional Organiser, Jared Wood talking to BBC Radio London about the issues surrounding the forthcoming Tube Strikes.
Labour says there’s no money left for workers.
But somehow there’s always money for war.
Trade unions are coming together, with one simple demand: wages not weapons.
🧵 “Sick Pay—If You’re Dying”: Bidvest Noonan’s Offer Shows Why Outsourcing Must End
@BidvestNoonan has exposed the obscenity of outsourcing in a series of ‘offers’ to our negotiators, offering a week’s sick pay to cleaners on @c2c_Rail - but only if you’re actually dying. 🔽
Yesterday, our former chair Rhys Harmer received the John Cogger Award for his work with Young Members and the union as a whole. Over several years, Rhys has turned RMTYM into a vibrant group that is building the leaders of tomorrow! Congratulations and well deserved🤝
