Raymond and other @GMB_union @BrightonMuseums workers began strike action today.

They're fighting an employer that wants to destroy their contract & conditions.

Don't visit the Royal Pavilion & other museums on strike days. Join the next strike day on 15 April.

BREAKING 🚨: NHS workers reject pay offer by two-thirds majority

GMB members have voted 67% to reject the pay offered for 2025/26 in England - and demand a meeting with Streeting 🚑

[Frances Ryan @DrFrancesRyan]

Thanks to @zarahsultana for reading my story from today’s Guardian as part of her powerful Commons speech.

Hearing the names of those who have died over the last decade brings home how long we have been fighting this system and the suffering that’s already been caused.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

It is significant that Disability Labour - the Labour Party’s official disabled person’s affiliate organisation - has issued a statement that the government’s concessions are insufficient and is calling on all MPs to vote against the benefits Bill on Tuesday.

[Frances Ryan @DrFrancesRyan]

The “welfare reform bill” is out and let’s be clear: this is not reform - it is devastating cuts. Disabled people will be made poorer, sicker, and more isolated as a result. That it is a Labour government causing this misery will be a mark of shame on the party for years to come.

Fantastic day at #GMB25 Congress today, with the union coming together to do a massive shout at @BrightonHoveCC to value their women workers and settle the equal pay dispute❗️

@GMB_union members will not sit down & shut up when injustice is happening🔥

[Josh @MuseumCritical]

50 years on from the Equal Pay Act, we still find that women are being undervalued by their employers. Today @GMB_union / @GMB_Equality took a stand against BHCC to demand Equal Pay for their members. Solidarity to all impacted by unequal pay. @GMBSouthern #GMB25

BREAKING 🚨: NHS spends £1.8bn a year on private services 💷

GMB research reveals a whopping £290m spent on private ambulances in last three years 🚑

[GMB Union @GMB_union]

Our calls for investment in new nuclear fell on deaf ears under the Tories.

This Labour government listens. And acts.
