Shameful! . @unitetheunion is crystal clear it will call out bad employers regardless of the colour of their rosette. What @BhamCityCouncil has proposed is #FireAndRehire, this should not be happening under a @UKLabour @GOVUK!.

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
