Unite has welcomed The Labour Party’s manifesto commitment to a public inquiry into the Battle of Orgreave, when forty years ago police forces brutally assaulted striking pickets near Sheffield.

Unite members are fighting back - for better jobs, pay and conditions. From Liverpool to London. From the automotive supplies to housing maintenance #FightbackFriday ✊ 📣
There is still no viable plan for the replacement of North Sea jobs or energy security. It’s time to put in place a viable plan with workers at its heart. Unite will not stand by & let workers be thrown on the scrapheap. Unite For A Workers' Economy #NoBanWithoutAPlan heraldscotland.com/news/24386711.…
If The Labour Party - the party that is meant to represent workers - can't provide a plan to secure thousands of skilled #oil and #gas jobs, or ban the odious practice of #FireAndRehire then @Unitetheunion can't endorse the manifesto on behalf of our members.

Ken Murphy’s £5m wage increase is a slap in the face to millions of struggling workers and families who paid for it through higher food bills. Tesco has taken advantage of the #CostOfLivingCrisis to rake in obscene profits - it's far from the only one.

Unite calls for a Labour government to back workers.
Unite the union: join a union wants a change in government, workers need The Labour Party to win. But, we must also be realistic about where we are and the scale of the challenges we face. Workers have been paying the price for too long.

Unite has condemned Wrexham ready meal manufacturer Oscar Mayer over its plan to #fireandrehire workers.
'The way it is treating its workers is an utter disgrace. Fire and rehire is consistently used by the worst of the worst employers and must be banned.' Sharon Graham
#FireAndRehire is an abhorrent practice used by the worst of the worst to attack their own workers. It should be against the law. Any employers considering using ‘fire & rehire’ against my members will be taking on the whole of Unite with all of our resources & industrial power.
It's time for action.
Millions of people are facing the sack if they don't accept less pay and worse conditions.
Please share and urge The Labour Party to stick to their guns and ban #fireandrehire completely.

If they cannot allow damage to Scotland, why on earth has it taken the Scottish Government eight months to even talk about a plan to secure the future of the #Grangemouth oil refinery and the jobs of people who work there? #JobsPayConditions

We are a £2.5 trillion #economy and politicians can and must make different choices to tackle the challenges we face. This government’s disastrous economic decision making is not a model to follow. Rishi Sunak #BattleForNo10
Triumphant claims by Rishi Sunak that the cost of living crisis is coming to an end as inflation falls are, quite frankly, a load of toffee. Working people have been left scratching their heads as to how this supposed good news for the economy will impact them. #BattleForNo10
The public remain gripped in a #CostOfLivingCrisis , inflation hasn’t been brought under control and workers are suffering under the yoke of high interest rates.
