A week after the announcements of job losses at @nationaltrust @RichmoMusic takes aim at the damage that weak financial planning and funding settlements is causing to organisations and the heritage they and our members support. Well worth reading. thetimes.com/article/187c7ce…

Congratulations to the Sector, officers staff and reps for organising such a lively and valuable AGM.
So many issues in such an essential Sector and @ProspectUnion is ideally placed to work with stakeholders to progress the voice of a skilled and committed workforce
Great to have Tom Rutland MP speak at our Heritage Sector AGM today.
Tom spoke about his work on the @CommonsCMS committee, and heard from our reps about the key workplace issues facing members in the sector.

🚨 The Employment Bill marks the biggest single change to workers’ rights in the last 50 years.
"It is critical that unions, employers and government work closely together in partnership as the Bill moves through Parliament and towards implementation.” - @mikeclancy1

While discussing support for the film industry in the @HouseofCommons today, @lisanandy recognised the ongoing precarity faced by many creative industry workers & that working with unions will be essential to address the sector's pressing challenges 🎞️

For someone who claims to want to be Prime Minister this is a disgrace.
Hard-working public servants deserve better.
We will not tolerate attacks like these on our members.
Kemi Badenoch says 'five to ten per cent' of civil servants 'should be in prison'
Speaking at a @spectator event, the Tory leadership hopeful says some civil servants 'leak official secrets' and 'undermine their ministers'

The significance of the Employment Rights Bill cannot be underplayed.
It is going to need real dedication from everyone involved – government, unions and business – to get it right @mikeclancy1 on #TUC24
