Our message is clear @Deliveroo 1) £5 per drop 2) Paid waiting times 3) Hiring freeze If these demands are not met then future action will be necessary. We hope that you will listen to the concerns of the riders. Your whole business relies on us. #Deliveroo #Strike #Bristol

1) Last night in the Hillsborough area of Sheffield @UberEats couriers self organised and took action against @McDonaldsUK over poor treatment. Within half an hour of boycotting the restaurant the manager was outside negotiating with the couriers!

A Deliveroo worker has been stabbed to death in North London. I look forward to hearing that @Deliveroo plan to pay his family significant compensation and take immediate steps to improve worker safety. theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/j…

@carla_denyer @TheGreenParty @EleanorComb @jon_bartley @sandyhruthven Thank you for the reply

@CouriersNetwork @TheGreenParty @EleanorComb Hi @CouriersNetwork, yep, @TheGreenParty have long supported worker status for gig workers and backed the Uber and Deliveroo strikes. Here's a statement from @jon_bartley in 2016: greenparty.org.uk/news/2016/11/0… Myself and @sandyhruthven have also spoken about it at your Bristol demos.

"@TheGreenParty has been speaking up for the need to regulate the gig economy for years, and vocal in supporting gig workers such as #Deliveroo riders striking for better conditions. People need jobs they can build a life on" @EleanorComb at #BristolLive #RooVolt @CouriersNetwork

@BorisJohnson When will couriers working on bogus self employed contracts be recognised as workers? Being recognised as workers will relieve significant stress of couriers, of which some work 60+ hours a week. The pay is often below minimum wage too.

@OwenJones84 Can you please raise awareness about the gig economy and the issues that couriers face up and down the country. Thanks.

As the serving MPs for Bristol, could you please raise this issue in Parliament. When will couriers working for Deliveroo or Uber Eats have worker status? It is not uncommon to earn £0/hr. Thanks @KerryMP @darrenpjones @karinsmyth @ThangamMP #Deliveroo @IWGB_CLB @IWGBunion

@martin_farley @carla_denyer @TheGreenParty @EleanorComb Thank you.

@CouriersNetwork @carla_denyer @TheGreenParty @EleanorComb "WR303 Registers of genuinely self-employed workers will be set up in appropriate industries e.g. construction. Businesses using non registered labour will be automatically deemed to be employers." I think that's a yes...
