Time and again drivers have complained to Arriva North London about working in dangerous conditions yet they have failed to act. A profitable company such as Arriva could easily invest in improving conditions and protecting the general public but is instead prioritises greed. We back our members.

Thanks Lucille ✊ Five years on, we've kept our promises. Putting members first. Workplace focused. Blank cheques for Labour ended. Finances working for members, not Westminster. Better deals won, from the negotiating table to the picket line. We are not done yet. Vote #SG4GS sharongraham.org

Reports that the Treasury is considering loosening fiscal rules are a welcome first step that the government is beginning to recognise what Unite has been saying for the last 2 years. Britain cannot cut its way to growth. Re-industrialisation and real growth 🧵 ⤵️

🔥 UNITE WIN | GXO DRIVERS This is another excellent deal for GXO drivers at Bellshill. It demonstrates the benefits of being a Unite member as we continue to drive up the standard of jobs, pay and conditions for our driver membership.

Workers in Motherwell have secured a significant pay rise after Unite negotiations. The improved deal delivers an extra 70p an hour, backdated to April, worth around £1,638 a year, and follows members overwhelmingly backing industrial action if needed. Another win for collective action. ✊

This deal builds on the successes already made at the company. It’s a deal which was delivered after our members emphatically backed taking industrial action, if they needed to, in order to get the increase they deserved.

I will always fight for you and will continue to deliver the change we need and press on with delivering a comprehensive Industrial Programme dedicated to improving the job security, pay and conditions of our members. Fighting for the jobs, pay and conditions of our members. Vote #SG4GS

The longer Cwm Taf health board refuse to honour the pay banding our health visitors deserve, the greater the effect this strike is having on the health care of children in Wales. Our members are demanding what is right and what is fair and they will have the full backing of Unite.

We will not accept NHS staff wages being suppressed to save the #NHS money. We need a properly funded NHS where workers are respected. We will escalate this dispute until South London & Maudsley NHS give these workers their fair share. Today at South London & Maudsley NHS picket line ⤵️

Tolpuddle: 200 years ago, a group of agricultural workers stood together and fought cuts to pay as grain price dropped, and landowners’ demanded workers paid for the crisis. Sound Familiar? Today: Workers expected to pay for crisis after crisis not of their making. 📰👇

With Unite members on the South London & Maudsley NHS picket line. It's clear more and more #NHS Trusts are pushing down pay by denying NHS workers their correct pay bands. This cannot continue. NHS workers should not be paying the price for crisis after crisis not of their making.

The new govt has one chance to change course. We are the world's sixth richest economy, the choice shouldn't be between pensioners and disabled people, or defence and public services. Britain doesn't need a chainsaw, it needs investment, jobs and growth. ⤵️

Workers at the Pilgrim’s site in Enniskillen have Unite’s full support as they strike for pay justice. Our members are simply seeking fairness, consistency and a pay award that reflects the cost-of-living pressures facing working families across Northern Ireland. ⤵️

Workers in social care, people & pensioners have been badly let down for years and years. Pure & simple. Britain's social care system is a national disgrace. It's been turned into a cash cow for profiteers making money on the back of people’s suffering. STOP THE PROFITEERS ⏭️ tinyurl.com/4ptmhccz

As part of Unite’s ongoing Health Campaign, we've been collating evidence in relation to the systematic underpaying of holiday pay in the NHS. The behaviour of NHS employers on this issue has been disgraceful. The choice is now straightforward: comply with the law or face Unite in court. ⤵️
