Today hundreds of British Gas key workers are being sacked - despite years of service for a highly profitable company.
No redundancy pay.
No apology.
Nothing.
Why? Because they refused to sign a worse contract.
British Gas should be ashamed of themselves.
Obscene.
This is a public health emergency.
Not a business opportunity for shoddy private healthcare chums to profiteer from distress.
It’s time to take back these beds for the NHS. Rent-free.

Thank you to the British public for standing with our striking ambulance workers.
You supported us and we support you.
That’s why our ambulance members have suspended their strike that was planned for December 28th.
BREAKING NEWS: Uber has finally done the right thing.
From tomorrow, all 70,000 Uber drivers will be paid holiday time, be automatically enrolled into a pension plan and will earn at least the minimum wage.
This is a big win for GMB and our members.
Shameful that Asda bosses are threatening hard-working staff with the sack if they don’t agree to a punishing contract.
Shoppers will be horrified.
It's time for Asda to listen to its workers 👇
NEW: British Gas has declared a 44% profit rise.
We need to see this reinvested in staff and in stopping soaring energy bills for working families across the country 🏭
What. A. Story. 🙏😢
If you care about our NHS then you need to hear what the first baby ever born into it has to say about this election 👶

Amazon workers in Bristol are staging a sit in 👏👏
Amazon is one of the most profitable companies on the planet - their workers deserve decent pay.
Solidarity ✊
200 years ago today 18 people were killed and hundreds injured as they protested for the representation of working people.
The Massacre at Peterloo sowed the seeds for universal suffrage and the trade union movement.
Today we remember those brave protesters.

There are no Brexit unicorns now 🚫🦄 only real choices ✅ ❌ and their consequences. The people must be the ones to decide whether Theresa May's version of Brexit beats the deal we currently have with Europe.
Brexit backing Dyson’s decision to move UK HQ to Singapore really highlights the kind of employer he is.
Good thing our members at Numatic still make the classic Henry vacuum cleaners here in Britian. They’ll help clean up this Brexit mess ...
Boris Johnson lied to the Queen.
Now it looks like he's trying to cover up a secret plan to sell-off the NHS. He can't be trusted.

BREAKING NEWS:
Massive victory for 40,000 Asda workers at the supreme court.
The court ruled that shop floor staff at Asda can be compared to workers in the distribution centre for the purposes of equal pay.
This is a huge win for GMB and our members.
The Tories are trying to pull a fast one with their Brexit deal.
All the signs are this is very damaging > they won’t even publish impact assessments.
How can workers trust the Tories on our jobs, rights & industries?
MPs can’t vote blindfolded & should say no this Saturday
Today marks the 20th anniversary of the National Minimum Wage.
Despite fierce opposition, Labour introduced it and saw millions get a pay rise ✊
Now the fight to end poverty pay continues 💷👇
History has been made today.
Thousands of women workers at Asda have won the fight for equal pay.
Other employers should take note. It is not acceptable to pay a woman less for work of equal value.

It's time the company listen and get back around the table.

30 years ago today Thatcher privatised England's water industry. Three decades on it's clear that this experiment has utterly failed us.

History made.
Tonight we can announce a brand new deal between GMB and Uber that will change the world of work forever.
Our deal means Uber drivers can now have greater job security, protections and representation in GMB.
SHARE THE NEWS.
BREAKING: It's the end of the road for Uber’s mistreatment of drivers.
This landmark Supreme Court ruling puts all debates to bed.
Time for Uber to accept its responsibilities, compensate drivers and discuss a way forward.
⚠️⚠️ IMPORTANT ⚠️⚠️
Today in Parliament MPs are debating whether to make fire and rehire illegal.
No employer should be able to threaten their workers like British Gas are now.
Agree that MPs should ban this immoral tactic? SHARE THIS.

As trade unionists, when we negotiate a pay deal with an employer, we go back to our members and ask them if they’re happy with it. On Brexit, the government need to take a leaf out of our book and be led by the people >>
22 years ago today the National Minimum Wage was introduced.
Despite fierce opposition, Labour introduced it and saw more than two million workers get a pay rise.
Now the fight to end poverty pay continues.
Steve Barclay could stop these strikes in a heartbeat, but he refuses to talk about pay.
Ambulance workers deserve better.
We're ready to talk when you are

Asda 𝘀𝗮𝘆 they want to make this Christmas extra special
But tonight they are busy preparing to sack their own workers unless they sign up to a punishing new contract.
