The official BlueSky account for the AQA Unison branch.
The past week was Unison AQA’s longest strike action, and the first taken by Unite AQA. The feeling across AQA is clear: workers deserve pay that keeps them secure. Together we are winning. Solidarity. #strike #workersrights #solidarity #fairpay #readytostrike
Today marks our largest strike to date. Seven days of action. We will continue, and we will win! #strike #workersrights #solidarity #fairpay #readytostrike
We were lucky and incredibly grateful to have Amazon US trade union reps from Kentucky and Seattle speak at our picket. We are not alone in this fight; our industrial action has the eyes and support of unions from around the world. www.instagram.com/reel/DZXQ0wZ...
