Labour conference might be over but the link from the workplace to the Labour Party through affiliated trade unions is what makes Labour strong. #Lab22 #Labour Get involved with @labourunionsuk 👉 Sign up labourunions.org.uk/signup/

Proud to join @unitetheunion and comrades today to highlight the devastating impact of the cost-of-living crisis. Poverty is no game - and we demand the immediate restoration of the £20 Universal Credit uplift to stop families being driven into misery and poverty.

Royal Mail’s disastrous restructuring is stopping post being delivered all around the country. Hundreds of jobs being lost. 86% of MANAGERS (Yes Managers) have now voted for strike action to defend this public service! @UniteSharon is backing them. Where’s @KwasiKwarteng ?

While the Governor of the @bankofengland & the Prime Minister want workers to think it’s irresponsible to demand that wages keep pace with prices, they won’t lift a finger to do anything about the ridiculous wealth being amassed by the rich & powerful. unitelive.org/runaway-profit…

The Labour Party was founded by the trade unions and we expect Labour MPs to defend workers, by words and by actions. To instruct Labour MPs not to be on picket lines with workers speaks volumes. 1/2

3 days to go! We scrimp and save. They hoard their profits. They talk of wage restraint. We say it’s time for profiteering restraint. March with us to #DemandBetter from this government. unitetheunion.org/demandbett…

Join us – we’re marching to demand action to tackle the #CostOfLivingCrisis. We didn’t create this crisis – we shouldn’t have to pay for it now. It’s time to make work pay. It's time for a new deal. unitetheunion.org/campaigns/…

Very glad to join FCA workers with my Shadow Treasury colleague Tulip Siddiq on the picket line today. The FCA does not yet recognise a trade union - we fully support efforts by the workforce to change their mind.
