Join us – we’re marching to demand action to tackle the #CostOfLivingCrisis. We didn’t create this crisis – we shouldn’t have to pay for it now. It’s time to make work pay. It's time for a new deal. https://t.co/sWi8Yuqnxz

Very glad to join FCA workers with my Shadow Treasury colleague Tulip Siddiq on the picket line today. The FCA does not yet recognise a trade union - we fully support efforts by the workforce to change their mind.
