Thank you to Sumitomo Electric UK Power Cables for the invitation to the opening of the new factory in Nigg.

Huge opportunity to bring hundreds of skilled jobs in renewables to Scotland.

You can support an energy transition whilst calling out shambolic government policies that have driven up bills, cost jobs and put national security at risk.

We need a coherent plan for a transition, not policy driven by ideology.

Great to be in Glasgow today, as we talk through the negotiated offer to end pay discrimination in the city.

When we win equal pay, it will be because the men and women of Glasgow stood together.

Solidarity to GMB members in Leeds and Swansea in their fights for pay justice.

More funding for Glasgow.

[Gary Smith @GMBGarySmith]

In 2018, the SNP council in Glasgow threatened to sue GMB when 1,000 cleansing workers refused to cross picket lines - now more threats.

But we will never forget the shameful part Labour played in decades of discrimination in Glasgow.

Working class aspiration. Reindustrialistion. Solidarity.

A Britain we can all believe in.

We’re in.

The PM’s speech was full of hope and addressed issues GMB members face daily

💦 An actual plan for water
🧑‍⚕️ National Care Service
🧍 Help for young people
🔥 Reduced energy bills

The Government must now roll up its sleeves and deliver 💪

[GMB Union @GMB_union]

The Chancellor’s speech was full of hope and optimism for a reindustrialised Britain.

From shipyards in Devon, to Merseyside, Rolls-Royce in Derby and the banks of the Clyde.

GMB members can’t wait to start on a steady drumbeat of work that will transform their communities.

[Gary Smith @GMBGarySmith]

Labour was elected on a promise to fix a broken Britain. 

Workers and communities are crying out for a better future.

We need action to put our industries, communities, and our country back where we belong.

On International Equal Pay Day we highlight the fact, on average women earn so much less than men it’s as if they stop being paid today for the rest of the year.

Our members have had enough, employers must deliver equal pay for equal work & reduce the gender pay gap. #EqualPay
