83% of schools don't have enough money to maintain their buildings. Meanwhile, this is the £42 million, luxury plane David Cameron chose to hire with taxpayers' money.
NEW 🚨 | Pay packets are worth less than 2008 in most UK local authorities. We estimate that workers would be £10,400 a year better off if real wages had grown at their pre-crisis trend. We need to invest in UK industry and a new deal for workers.
On International Workers' Memorial Day, we remember every life lost to unsafe work and commit to fighting for the health and safety of every worker. #IWMD
NEW 🚨 | BME women are twice as likely to be on zero-hours contracts as white men. This is a prime example structural racism in action. It’s time to ban zero-hours contracts, like in Labour’s New Deal for Working People.
Thursday 2 May at 17:30, a History & Policy Trade Union Forum seminar looks at the efforts made by trade unions in the Twentieth Century to unite globally. Featuring the TUC's @nowak_paul Details/Registration: sas.ac.uk/events/trade-u…
BREAKING 🚨: Tata Steel are pressing ahead with mass redundancies. This is a hammer blow to manufacturing and the UK economy.
Cheaper rail fares going towards improved journeys and a better, more reliable service, rather than £1 BILLION into shareholders pockets? Sign me up.
Rail in public ownership… Good for passengers, taxpayers, UK economy, rail staff, the environment. Not so good for the shareholders who’ve extracted profit from our railways for decades but can’t run trains on time. Works for me.👏👏 @LouHaigh theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
🔥Workers who can't strike can't bargain. And if you're not bargaining, you're begging. ❌But now the Tories are trying to ban effective strike action in sectors like fire and rescue, health, education and rail. 💪Workers themselves must defeat the anti-union laws. And we can.

NYC, 1930s (colorized) Have you ever felt that the average person dressed better in the past? IMO, the reason has nothing to do with respectability, body shape, or even suits. It has to do with the loss of what I call "shape and drape." 🧵
Time to drop the lazy stereotypes and speak up for young workers who are too often forced to put up with low pay, insecure work and lousy bosses.

Starbucks paid nearly six times more to its parent company for royalty & licence payments than it did in UK corporation tax - just £7.2m on a gross profit of £149m. 🤷🏻♂️ It’s time for big corporations to pay their way & for government to make sure they do. amp.theguardian.com/business/2024/…
Could you get by on minimum wage & a zero hours contact? Scared to take a day off ill because you don’t get sick pay. Living in fear that your boss could sack you without notice or reason. If you think the world of work can be better, @AngelaRayner agrees with you and so do I.
Angela Rayner has pushed back against Lord Peter Mandelson after the Labour peer criticised her package of employment reforms, likening his complaints to the “squealing” by business over the introduction of the minimum wage in 1997 ft.com/content/47de45…
I think that’s pretty clear - and to be fair @Keir_Starmer and @AngelaRayner have said it time and again. A New Deal for workers, delivered in full, for the benefit of workers and decent employers alike.
Keir Starmer promises that Labour's workers' rights plan, which includes a ban on zero hours contracts, will be implemented "in full" in the first term of a Labour Government.
Keir Starmer promises that Labour's workers' rights plan, which includes a ban on zero hours contracts, will be implemented "in full" in the first term of a Labour Government.
A new deal for workers. A coherent industrial strategy. Real power & resources devolved to the regions and nations. A world away from the chaos of our current government.
Labour in power delivers for working people. In government, we will work together to get Britain’s future back.
“The government doesn’t understand social care. If ministers had even a basic grasp of the sector, they would have reformed it long ago. But instead, the inept approach to the awarding of care visas has given dodgy employers total freedom to exploit overseas staff at whim."…
