It’s always a tragedy when someone goes to work & doesn’t come home.
Heartbreaking for the family, friends and union colleagues of the driver who lost their life. Thinking of them and all the emergency services staff involved.
Solidarity & condolences from all at @The_TUC
Our thoughts are with those affected by the horrific stabbings in Edinburgh yesterday.
Anti-Muslim hatred - or any form of racism - has no place in our society.
We cannot allow our country to become more fractured. We are much stronger when we come together and reject division.
Hollywood studios are searching Reddit for short stories and ideas that can be turned into movies following the success of ‘BACKROOMS.’

When I was kid, if you worked in the public sector you’d never be a millionaire, but you had decent pay, a pension, sick pay & career progression.
Outsourcing sacrificed decent jobs for shareholder dividends.
It’s time to right that wrong & this a good step towards that.
@pcs_union This is an important step towards the government’s promise to deliver the biggest wave of insourcing in a generation.

Good things can happen - if you fight for it.
After campaigning from @pcs_union, today the government announced that thousands of outsourced low-paid workers are to be brought in house. They will see a massive improvement to their pay and conditions.
Trump in the 🇺🇸 = Farage in 🇬🇧
A country that fails working people.
That is more divided and narrow-minded.
That defunds public services and only delivers for the billionaires.

Flying visit to Minneapolis for @AFLCIO 2026
Sobering to be in the city where Renee Goode & union member Alex Pretti were murdered by ICE in January, & George Floyd was murdered 6 years ago sparking global outrage.
Great to see 🇺🇸 union movement growing despite Trump’s attacks.
We won sick pay, pregnancy protections and an end to no-fault evictions because workers and renters organised and demanded them. Now Reform UK's Great Repeal Bill pledges to scrap the Employment Rights Act, the Renters' Rights Act, and even the Equality Act that protects you from discrimination at work.
Scrapping your rights won't lower your bills or raise your pay. It just hands power to bad bosses and rogue landlords.
Workers across the country are putting posters up in their workplaces and telling Parliament: oppose the Great Repeal Bill.

Bills are going up - so are bank profits.
Increasing the bank surcharge tax would pay for a cut to energy bills up to £559 a year.
It's time to redistribute wealth.
