It's clear who Reform UK stand for - and it's not workers.
They seek to sow division, while committing to throw our hard-won rights on the scrapheap.

📢 The minimum age to become a train driver is coming down.
The government has listened to ASLEF: people aged 18+ will be able to apply to train as a driver.
This will give young people improved access to a skilled, unionised career and help safeguard our industry's future.

Last week we launched our Rail Freight Future Campaign at a round table with MPs in Westminster. Rail freight has a vital role in Britain's future supporting economic growth and tackling climate change but its future is uncertain.

We revealed Nigel Farage’s voting record to his constituents in Clacton.
They weren’t happy.

Following yesterday's Parliamentary debate about Open Access Rail, we've explained why it's not the future - ASLEF continues to support an end to fragmentation, and a publicly owned railway that works for everyone aslef.org.uk/news/open-acce…

🔮Just reading all the Tory amendments to the Employment Rights Bill, and feeling all Mystic Meg for setting up a 'Hands off our Rights!' Open Letter. 🔮
How could we possibly have known this would be their agenda?

Brilliant job by @LouHaigh driving the Public Ownership Bill onto the Statute Book.
Taking our railways back into public hands, so they are run in the interests of passengers and communities.
A Labour Government in action.

Today the Public Ownership Bill received Royal Assent, beginning the biggest overhaul of our railways in a generation. The Public Ownership Act will ensure our railways are finally run in the interest of passengers and taxpayers, allowing us to create a rail system the British public can trust.

Today the Public Ownership Bill received Royal Assent 👑. This is a major step towards Britain's railways operating in the interest of the public.
We now look ahead to the creation of Great British Railways to truly bring the wheels and steel back together.

Great to join @ASLEFunion & hear about their member survey
I am incredibly concerned about the wellbeing implications of train drivers not having access to safe, clean, dignified toilet facilities as well as the time to use them during their working day

Delighted to host @ASLEFunion in Parliament today for the launch of their ‘Dignity for Drivers’ report.
Ensuring everyone has access to proper toilet facilities is key to safety and dignity at work.

We know that the railway workforce is key to the efficient operation of services, so we're glad that @LouHaigh sat down with us to resolve our dispute as soon as she took office, and continues to move fast and fix things.
Thanks to @rach_hopkins for raising this important issue.

We agree with @tonyvaughanMP in his question to Parliament this morning - investing in infrastructure and moving more freight on rail are really important for growing businesses and growing local economies.
Let's make use of all the available capacity.

We are strengthening rights and protections for working people to make work pay. Good employers know that treating people with dignity and respect helps improve productivity and their business’s reputation. That’s the mandate we were given and we’re getting on with the job.

Today, MPs have a chance to support the Employment Rights Bill – a vital first step in delivering the #NewDeal for Working People. Every constituency in the country supports strengthening workers’ rights. Check out the stats for your area: labourunions.org.uk/newdealdata/

When it comes to supporting working people, you
know whose side the Tories are on.
Statutory Mat Pay is £184 a week. Equivalent to £4.60 an hour for a 40 hr week #notexcessive
Delighted Labour's New Deal means this Government will be urgently reviewing *all* parental leave.

Yesterday the House of Commons voted through the rail public ownership bill, led by Transport Secretary @LouHaigh. An important step in the journey towards a railway that runs in the interest of people and communities across the country.
Next stop, House of Lords 🚄
