Unite calls for a Labour government to back workers.

@unitetheunion wants a change in government, workers need @UKLabour to win. But, we must also be realistic about where we are and the scale of the challenges we face. Workers have been paying the price for too long.

Our public services have been driven into the ground and are underfunded to the tune of tens of billions of pounds. Workers faced with plans to cut fossil fuels need new jobs to stop their livelihoods being lost. And we have an investment gap compared to our competitors that will require billions more to fill.

We will have to start facing up to the truth. To fix Britain after years of @Conservatives neglect is going to need more money and there are clear choices to be made. Whilst we all want growth and #Labour's proposed changes may move the dial somewhat - that alone is not likely to be enough.

Labour need to make government count. They can and need to make real change. The rise of the far right throughout the west should send alarm bells ringing in Westminster. People want to see tangible results and politicians must listen to workers and communities.

With rising geopolitical tensions, a cost of living crisis and rampant inequality, now is not the time to be timid. As we vote Labour - we also need them to be bold.

5/5: In truth this new document is not worthy of discussion. All unions must now demand that @UKLabour changes course and puts the original New Deal for Workers back on the table. #JobsPayConditions #Labour

[Sharon Graham @UniteSharon]

🧵1/5: All the warnings Unite made about the dangers of @UKLabour rowing back on its pledges for the 'New Deal for Workers' have been proved right. This new #Labour document on the New Deal, issued to the unions on Monday, is a row back on a row back.

Not my letter, but this is where we are now in #NeathPortTalbot with NHS dentistry? Kicked off NHS list and forced to pay extremely high private fees, while there's a serious shortage of NHS openings anyway?

What's the plan for addressing this?

Imagine being a trade union member and your union asking for a bonus because they scabbed a picket. solidarity with my Unite brothers and sisters down in #Cardiff. bullies will never win and shame on gmb for what they saying

Fellow @UniteWales and @unitetheunion activists, please give @UniteCardiff80 a follow as they campaign against #WorkplaceBullying and #PovertyPay

[Alan McCarthy - Join a Union - Join Unite @AlanMcC4rthy]

#Bullying in the workplace, a sledgehammer to #SocialPartnership and good industrial relations needs to be confronted and eradicated, whether it's in #CardiffCouncil, Amazon or your child's school.

Those with the power to act, who do nothing, should question their own commitment

[UniteWales @UniteWales]

Our Reps at @cardiffcouncil leafleting the streets in @CathaysLabour ward telling residents the truth that the Council can give our members a pay rise and stop the dispute.

We are asking Councillors @cathayschris @Merryse235 to intervene and negotiate with the union in #Cardiff

[UniteWales @UniteWales]

"@unitetheunion will continue to fight to make sure that people are not living in poverty when they provide an essential service for the residents of Cardiff."

@AlanMcC4rthy on why our striking members at @cardiffcouncil deserve better than poverty pay.

[UniteWales @UniteWales]

"I've got members on the picket line today who are on the verge of real desperation, who’re having to use food banks."

Regional Officer, Simon Ellis, speaking from the picket line in #Wrexham about the struggles council workers are facing and why they're out on strike.

[UniteWales @UniteWales]

"If there's more money, we will have better services."

Kim has never been on a picket line before and was nervous about taking strike action, but she wants to continue the fight, not just for fair pay, but to improve council services as a whole.

🚨 | NEW: Rishi Sunak and his wife are hosting a 120-seat Coronation lunch at No 10 right now - which is 900 short of how many he lost on Thursday

[Alan McCarthy - Join a Union - Join Unite @AlanMcC4rthy]

This crucial petition now has over 1400 signatures, around 200 supporters a day

At 10,000 needed to trigger debate in Senedd, it'll take 43 days to reach target

We don't have 43 days

Time's short, & the threat in #Wales is imminent

Rishi Sunak tells #PMConnect that NI is “world’s most exciting economic zone" b/c of access to both GB and EU markets. Earlier he said this "very special position" makes it "incredibly attractive" place to invest. This is, of course, the status *whole* UK had before Brexit 🤔
