UNISON NEC Rep for Local Govt Male Seat, Wirral UNISON Branch Sec, Socialist. All content shared is personal.
UNISON will be a union that ‘puts members first and fights for all public service workers,' says new UNISON general secretary Andrea Egan. ‘We can be an incredible force for change,’ says Andrea and urges members to get involved with their branch. @AndreaEganGS
🚨🚨PLEASE SHARE 🚨🚨 Lancashire care workers and residents face vicious attacks by the new Reform UK council. Five care homes and day centres are ‘under review’. If these vital care services close, 300 people could lose their jobs and hundreds of people may lose their homes.
I saw Andrea Egan today, she visited a UNISON picket line this morning of striking teaching assistants. Andrea is a fantastic candidate for general secretary of our union. I have voted for - make sure you get your vote in! Huge cuts are being made across the NHS... #Andrea4GS
🚨We must address our continued failure to achieve ballot thresholds. Within the first 100 days I will launch a benchmarking exercise of successful industrial action, comparing UNISON with other unions. We will adopt the most effective methods from across the movement!
.@Andrea4GS is a principled, working class trade unionist and she’s running to be Unison General Secretary. Andrea is proudly backed by: ✊Leeds Teaching Hospitals Branch ✊Leeds Local Government Branch ✊Leeds University Branch ✊Leeds Beckett University Branch Vote Andrea!
Without even consulting members, UNISON backs Bridget Phillipson as Deputy Labour Leader. Its time to put UNISON members first.
It’s great to see so many MPs supporting an amendment that would prevent cuts to welfare, including 9 who received support from UNISON. However 53 UNISON-backed MPs have not. Our GS and Labour Link must be clear that they must support the amendment and vote against cuts.
You’ve got my vote Tara ✊🏻✊🏻
The removal of Steve North from his elected roles of UNISON President & Chair of the NEC’s Staffing Committee is a politically-motivated effort to influence the NEC elections and the General Secretary election later this year. Time For Real Change stands in Solidarity with him.
