TULO unions met with Andy Burnham today and had a very positive discussion about our shared priorities. Working people need a hopeful vision of the future – that means unions must be true partners in a Labour Government. Labour and unions are stronger together.

We were proud to host with @thompsons.law and affiliated unions, this celebration of the Centenary of the @tugroupoflabmps.bsky.social and mark the Employment Rights Act passing Labour formed to govern for working people, and the Trade Union Group held Labour to that for 100 years. Happy Centenary!

Last night our movement came together to celebrate the Centenary of the Trade Union Group of Labour MPs. 100 years of forging close ties between trade unions and Labour, pushing for more working class representation, and campaigning for better rights at work like the Employment Rights Act.

The movement stood together for HOPE, and hope won the day 🌈 🌹 ☀️ ♥️ ✊ What an incredible result. Congratulations @andyburnham.bsky.social

On Saturday, we were together for HOPE in Makerfield. Watch. Share. Then pledge to join us on Thursday. 👇 labourunions.org.uk/makerfield-p... 👆
