The struggle for disabled equality is a working-class struggle. With benefit sanctions and cuts soaring, @Unite_Community took the fight to Westminster on the day of the budget.

🔌Stop the energy price rip-off. Public ownership can tackle rocketing costs🚀
I'm here with @unitetheunion delegates at the #LabourConference2025 Our message is clear 📢 It’s time to end the chaos in our energy network which allows profiteers to flourish while workers and communities are left in the cold.

It's not an easy job, working on the bins. It's not a well-paid job. But it is an essential job. Taking £8k a year from bin workers in Birmingham is just plain wrong. You'd think a @UKLabour council & government would get that. @Kevin_Maguire & @DailyMirror do. If you get it, pls comment and share♻️

There is another path. Instead of snatching crumbs from workers, pensioners and the disabled, Labour should target the massive concentration of wealth built up by the richest one per cent. A #wealthtax, as well as fairer taxes on corporate profiteers and the highest earners, would deliver far more money than any cuts to benefits and public services.

⛑️ No worker should be harmed on the job, but construction remains the UK's most dangerous industry. ✊ Today we celebrated a huge union win: a 12-year redevelopment project without a single serious accident. 🏗️ 4,000 members were kept safe on site at Battersea Power Station.

#Solidarity with workers on strike at Princes Food in Bradford, Cardiff, Glasgow, Long Sutton and Wisbech. They are fighting for a fair and decent pay offer. "Our members work in back-breaking roles on low pay and want a fair slice of the pie." @UniteSharon

Security workers at London’s Guys and St Thomas’ hospital will take fresh industrial action after the trust declined to pay them a wage increase worth £2,000, which equals just 0.96 pence per hour. unitetheunion.org/news-event…

Absolutely incredible turn out from our striking @cardiffcouncil members today. Their message remains clear, strike action will continue across Cardiff until the council decide to resolve this locally and come to negotiations with a fair pay offer. #CouncilStrikes
