Proud to go to Number 10 in order to make the case for our tens of thousands of members in the gas industry. It’s a sector dominated by good, union jobs that can play a big part of the move towards net zero. We are fighting for it. #GMB_union

As it’s Orange and #BlackFriday, we paid a visit to Amazon HQ to hand in a pay claim on behalf of thousands of GMB members. Amazon’s profits are built on our members’ work - they deserve to share in the astronomical success of the company. 🚀 It’s time for £17.

BREAKING 🚨: Northern Ireland faces water chaos as 90% of workers vote for strike action 🌊 A pay rise has been authorised by the company - but the Department for Finance must sign it off before workers can be paid 🙅

GMB are not standing up against Net Zero, we are making sure it delivers for the same working people who interests @TiceRichard regularly votes against.

Great to hear @AngelaRayner confirm that the bill to improve worker’s rights will be tabled next month. This promises to be the largest change to employment rights in generations and will rebalance the relationship back towards those whose work makes our country great.

Note to my American friends, what ‘respect’ @realDonaldTrump had on the world stage came exclusively from dictators and fascists and was the ‘respect’ people give to a useful idiot whose every day in power weakened the USA. Elsewhere he remains a narcissistic laughing stock.

A message for Asda, and for any employer that undervalues GMB women and “pockets the difference”… …time’s up. ⌛️ #TUC2024

Great to see #TUC24 get behind our campaign as more than 60,000 Asda workers take their case to the Employment Tribunal today. Asda workers are making history. The result of this hearing will call time on the retailers undervaluing their predominantly women shop floor workers.

That remarkable Bill Clinton stat on the Democrats creating 50 million new jobs and the Republicans just one million (since 1989) is *correct*.

Solidarity with striking security workers in Milton Keynes today. These workers do a difficult, often dangerous job and 90 per cent of them are paid just the minimum wage - and are then forced to undertake further unpaid training from home. Unacceptable from their employer, G4S.
