Remembering our member Michael Ashton, a gasfitter for Barking and Dagenham Council, who died just over a year ago aged 28. A memorial to him now stands at the Dagenham site where he worked. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and fellow colleagues. romfordrecorder.co.uk/news/2…

Replying to @GMBLondonRegion
@GMBLondonRegion colleagues speaking to our members in Prison Escort and Custody Services as they demand the repeal of S127 and their right to strike re-instated, in a sector that has been under-valued for far too long. @POAUnion

Great news for our emergency winter aid appeal. Many thanks @GMB_union for donating £5,000 to support the secondary school in Kryvyi Rih that is part it. More details and donate on the crowdfunder: bit.ly/uawinteraid That takes us to £11,350 - nearing half way mark!

Octopus picked a union. Its workers picked GMB. Recognition isn't something a boss hands to whichever union it prefers. It's won by the people doing the work. Our members. We're not going anywhere. 🐙✊ #MembersFirst

🚨Victory for Queen’s Hospital‼️ Nearly two years after launching my campaign to expand the A&E at Queen’s Hospital, the Labour government have allocated £42m to make it a reality. This is an absolute triumph for local people. 🏥👇 margaretmullane.co.uk/2026/1…

Software failed. Workers paid the price. Hundreds of London drivers were locked out for three days over a busy August weekend. Uber's offer? £80. That's £3.33 an hour. Our members want fair compensation, not a goodwill gesture 👇 taxi-point.co.uk/post/uber-d…

Honouring our communities means more than remembering. Every right Black workers have won at work was fought for and organised. Equality is not simply given. It is organised. This Black History Month, honour it where you work: start the conversation, demand the data and bring a colleague into the union. Join GMB: gmb.org.uk/join #NoPlaceForRacism #StrongerTogether

🟠⚫ Black workers built our movement and they're leading the fight for racial equality at work today. Later this month we launch our Black Activist Toolkit to help reps call out inequality and win change where they work. #BlackHistoryMonth
Black History is British history. We must remember, celebrate & teach our Black history all year round – including the contributions of Black workers & trade unionists. We must keep organising for racial equality in our workplaces & across society. #BlackHistoryMonthUK #BHM26

Last Saturday GMB sisters from workplaces across London came together to share their fights, their wins and their plans for what comes next. These are the women who keep this region running, and they are organising to make sure women's work is valued and women's voices are heard. Thanks to everyone who spoke and took part, and to @Uma_Kumaran for joining us. Strong. Fearless. Together. ✊ #GMBSisters #StrongerTogether

🚨 GMB WIN 🚨 Less than 24 hours after Thurrock caretakers voted to strike, the Council backed down. Plans to downgrade their roles are scrapped, the traditional caretaking model is back and the strike is off. That's the power of a union. #StrongerTogether thurrock.nub.news/news/local…

Our energy officer rang the entire energy industry to ask one question. Every large energy company in Britain recognises a union. One doesn't. 🐙 @OctopusEnergy seems like a good time to talk.

Britain's biggest energy supplier is the only one that doesn't recognise a union. GMB has written to @OctopusEnergy founder Greg Jackson requesting voluntary recognition for collective bargaining. Hundreds of Octopus workers are GMB members and they want a say on pay, terms and conditions. 🐙 utilityweek.co.uk/union-serv…
