Mick Lynch RMT tells #MayDay rally that our movement is not owned by one political party or one faction - we’ll push ANY government for the real change we need

Without trade unions we wouldn't have:

• Sick pay
• A two day weekend
• Maternity leave
• Protection from workplace discrimination
• 8 hour working days
• Redundancy pay
• A minimum wage
• Health and safety in the workplace
• Workplace pensions
