The government-appointed commissioners in #Birmingham report directly to Rayner. I expect a @UKLabour @GOVUK to intervene, and I certainly expect @AngelaRayner โ€“ who talks about workersโ€™ rights โ€“ to roll her sleeves up. @HarryClrke @NewStatesman โคต๏ธ.

Leaving workers to wither on the vine is not what I expect from a @UKLabour @GOVUK. There's something wholly wrong with a decision to ignore workers who are losing up to a quarter of their pay. #Birmingham #Bins

Bus companies must stop passing the buck and take immediate action to ensure the safety of their drivers and passengers in extreme heat. For too long employers have played fast and loose with driver safety, putting profits before people. #JobsPayConditions
