Open letter: stop First Group, Arriva and other private firms clinging on to our railway.
🚨8 in 10 of us back full public ownership of rail. And the government is working on delivering it. But @railandroad is still letting private firms in - disrespecting democracy😡. @Heidi_Labour, impose a moratorium on new 'open-access'. Our letter👉

Thank you @MartinRhodes21 for raising this with.@Keir_Starmer👏 – time to keep our transport workers safe & stop violence on the transport network! ✊.
At PMQs I raised the shocking 47% rise in violence against rail staff. 🚆 Our transport workers deserve to feel safe.🤝 I welcome @Keir_Starmer's support for stronger protections like body-worn cameras & greater accountability for Train Operating Companies. @TSSAunion @RMTunion

Today marks 20 years since the 7 July bombings that took 52 lives and injured hundreds on London’s public transport. We remember those we lost and honour the heroic efforts of transport workers, emergency services, and ordinary people who saved lives. #7July #20YearsOn

In this heat we expect employers to show common sense and compassion. Staff shouldn't be disciplined for adapting their clothing to stay safe and comfortable. Flexibility on workwear is essential in high temperatures. #heatwave.
Heatwave conditions will affect much of Continental Europe through the next week, but with the focus of the most anomalous heat moving southeast with time. Temperatures are expected to be 5-10°C above normal fairly widely, with some locations continuing to exceed 40°C 🌡️

The government says it wants to grow the economy, yet it's proposing to slash the lifeline that helps disabled workers stay in employment. We object to measures that prevent our disabled members accessing PIP. Call on Liz Kendall to stop the cuts👉
