Join us on the 27th October for the March Against Austerity on the evening before Budget day. We've just heard there will be no additional funding for NHS pay, that it would need to come from existing NHS budgets. . #MarchAgainstAuaterity

🚑⚠️ Ambulance handover delays are putting patients at risk. New UNISON research reveals 59% of ambulance workers have seen patients deteriorate while waiting to hand them over at A&E. UNISON says the car park care crisis cannot continue. Ministers must act urgently. Read more ⬇️ buff.ly/AffynEz
Ireland is pushing a motion to ban Israel from FIFA and UEFA. It has made JD Vance very mad. It's time to remove Israel from world sport, don't you agree?
I was pleased to bring solidarity today to traffic wardens and teaching assistants who are members of Camden UNISON, on strike today. I raised the March Against Austerity, taking place on the 27th October, on the eve of Budget day. This is a way we can call for proper funding for our services.
🚨 Opposing the EHRC guidance – we need your voice MPs will decide on the guidance in the next 30 days — and we need to show them the reality We need you to tell us why it is unworkable and the real life impact it will have on you in your workplace 📩 Email us: out@unison.co.uk

The prime minister can’t wait any longer to fix social care. A National Care Service must start with action now: ✅ Put care before private profit ✅ Properly fund the Fair Pay Agreement ✅ End exploitation in the sector 🔗 unison.org.uk/press/2026/0...
🚨 “The risk of losing these people is too great for our sector.” Methodist Homes CEO Sam Monaghan warns against driving away the migrant care workers our care system relies on. They deserve fairness, dignity and security. It’s time for #FairVisasNow.
🚨 “UNISON’s very clear: we don’t think the rules should be changed for migrant workers who are here delivering our social care services.” Assistant general secretary Clare Williams speaking to Channel 4 News at #LabConf26. #FairVisasNow
At 2pm on Monday 28th September, UNISON will hold a rally outside Labour conference to send a message – you can't build a National Care Service while attacking migrant workers.
I was honoured to meet Omar Barghouti, co-founder of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement and leading human rights activist at #TUC2026. The labour movement has played a key role in moving the UK's position but we have much more to do to end UK complicity in genocide and Apartheid.
All women and girls deserve to live a life free from violence and abuse. General Secretary Joanne Thomas speaks at #TUC2026
“Every pound spent on education supports jobs and local economies. Investment in education is one of the few things that will stabilise our democracy.” Jo Grady at our How to Fund a Brighter Future fringe at #TUC2026.
Migrant care workers answered the call when our health and care services were facing severe staff shortages. Changing the rules halfway through is breaking the promise made to them. ‘We will continue to lobby. I absolutely stand behind them,’ says @andreaegangs.bsky.social at #TUC2026
Every worker deserves fair pay, good working conditions and a contract that reflects the hours they actually work. Deputy General Secretary Rab Donnelly speaks at #TUC2026
"For many years, organisations including more recently Strike Map have been making a case for a fundamental change to employment and industrial relations law." @sarahwoolley1.bsky.social, shout out for #StrikeMap at #TUC26. strikemap.org #TUC2026
Outsourcing means we waste money on profits for shareholders, and private equity companies - and the cost of managing contracts. Proud to be speaking at @barnet_unison this evening, a branch that has fought against outsourcing for many years.
From last night's launch of the UNISON and RMT campaign Insource Now. Profiteers have been sucking money out of the public sector for decades and it's time to turn the tide. Join the campaign today. insourcenow.co.uk
Today I met with our trans, non-binary and gender diverse members. So many members have written to us explaining that the updated EHRC guidance is unworkable. I will work with our trans non-binary and gender diverse members to change the law for legal gender recognition.
Our General Secretary @andreaegangs.bsky.social supports UNISON's change the law campaign. We've been overwhelmed with the responses from members - keep them coming!
📢 "Your voice is needed." UNISON general secretary @AndreaEganGS.bsky.social is calling on members and trans allies to oppose the EHRC guidance. MPs will decide on it in the next 30 days. Tell us why it's unworkable in your workplace. 📩 out@unison.co.uk
In UNISON we are clear about the change that needs to happen: Repairing our public services. Real public ownership. Taxing the rich. And standing up for our values, not throwing migrant workers under the bus.
Trade unionists are the backbone of our public services, standing up against cuts and privatisation. When you attack one of us, you attack all of us. Discovery Schools Academy Trust, stop union-busting! Reinstate Tom Barker #ReinstateTomBarker #NoUnionBusting #UNISON

We’re having a brilliant week in Brighton for our National Delegate Conference. I couldn’t be happier to be serving members as the first ordinary member general secretary – including from the all-important ice cream stand. UNISON members first, always ✊🍦
Every time a politician blames migrants and refugees for problems created by our unjust economic system it fuels hatred. Every act of scapegoating adds to the cesspit of racism. It needs to stop. All our leaders must go beyond condemnation and stop emboldening the far-right.
🚨 SOS NHS coalition response to the first official corridor care figures ⬇️ This is a national emergency, and must be dealt with as such - through investment in NHS beds, staff & social care. #NHS #NHScrisis #corridorcare
