Amazon workers in Coventry are on the verge of history: the first union recognition deal with Amazon in the UK. But Amazon are doing everything they can to stop it.

👏👏#NUJ achieves historic union recognition at Press Association! The independent body responsible for the decision has approved automatic recognition without the need for a ballot. Huge thanks deserved to all members at PA. Full statement below. nuj.org.uk/resource/nuj-a…

@LagstoneHall For the sectors you mention, it's likely Unite (general private sector), Prospect (science and tech) or CWU's UTAW tech branch.

@LagstoneHall In general, there's a 3 step rule. 1) If a union has recognition where you work, pick that one as they have collective negotiation rights. 2) If not but colleagues are already members of one, pick that one as there's power in numbers. 3) If neither, pick relevant one for sector.

NEW 🚨🚨 | Trade union membership grew by 90,000 in 2023. This is welcome, but our movement is not complacent. We need to get more people into trade unions – especially younger workers.

@The_TUC @nowak_paul I'm sure BrewDog's James Watt will be gutted to have ruled himself out of contention for this one, now he's stepped down as CEO. Especially as it looks like a "solid gold" trophy!

For taking over £500,000 - while paying crew £4.87 an hour... P&O Ferries CEO, Peter Hebblethwaite, is our Bad Boss of the Month! @nowak_paul

It's a thorough and ready-made resource for any government that wants to tackle the urgent challenges of AI in the UK's workplaces. Now we need the political will to make use of it.
