"Nobody wants to strike... but firefighters are prepared to strike because they are fed up & angry at the level of attack on their pay... they love their job, they want to serve their communities, but they've also got families and bills to pay" @MattWrack from the @fbunational

Solidarity with striking Amazon workers. Terrible conditions to work in; dignity should be an expectation in the workplace.

[Fire Brigades Union @fbunational]

Under-paying and over-working firefighters has consequences. It forces them to consider leaving the jobs they love and puts the public at risk.

Despite what fire chiefs and the government say, it doesn't have to be this way. #VoteYes and tell them it's #FairPayOrFireStrike

On behalf of @FBUScotland @JMcKScotRegSec @FBU_Scotland_EC I’d like to thank everyone for their messages of support and solidarity for those injured and affected by today’s fire in Edinburgh. Updates will follow but please continue to show respect for all involved and refrain…

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

Rishi Sunak has repeatedly said the International Labour Organisation (ILO) supported his government plans to enforce "minimum service levels" during public sector strikes - that’s complete boll****

Superb article on this from @faisalislam

This week:
❌The government attacked our right to strike
❌ The inspectorate threatened our right to collective bargaining
❌ Tory MPs told us to learn how to budget 

They don't want you to have a voice. Show them you won't be silenced. 

✅Get your ballot in today and #voteyes
