Great news! A huge congrats to everyone who has campaigned and organised for Fair Pay Agreements over many years, with the bill being introduced to parliament. FPAs will be a key tool for improving pay and conditions across whole industries. We're ready!.

The protest has gone on too long and it's ugly. Workers at and around parliament have had enough. E tū is calling on them to go home, and get vaccinated.

It wasn’t unexpected but it’s still tough news for our members at Imperial Tobacco in Petone who received confirmation today that the factory will close by year’s end. 122 jobs gone and millions lost from the local economy.
