Great to have the support of Eddie Dempsey from the @RMTunion, showing support for our @ucu members at @UCUNUbranch who have taken 20 days of strike action defending pay and pensions #MayDay Rally #Newcastle

@RMTunion I’d like to give a big shout out to Jony at Leicester Station who has been really helpful to me, trying to work out how to work around a delayed train this morning.

The rail sector has been accused of a “scandalous” failure to take advantage of the “rich and important” data from a unique mass public consultation that heard from many tens of thousands of disabled rail passengers. disabilitynewsservice.com/rail-sectors-s…

@DerekDonkey1977 For what, campaigning so that they and their colleagues aren’t assaulted?

@RMTunion Sack them all

You can't have a successful railway without staff🚆 Public ownership must mean more staff at our train stations. Email your MP now: vist.ly/4zv9i

Put an end to outsourcing and bring Churchill cleaners in-house now. It's time for Labour to honour their pledge. RMT NEC member Daniel Gibbons, regional organiser John Parsons and relief regional organiser Primrose Jeanton make the case for ending outsourcing quite clearly.

NEW: Violence in the Workplace - published today! The APPG held a public hearing, with cross-Party panel members from the Commons and Lords receiving powerful witness testimony on the alarming rise in the rate of violent attacks against public-facing workers. Evidence was heard from @POAUnion @RMTunion @UsdawUnion @NASUWT @unitetheunion representatives. Read the report and its recommendations here: appgosh.org/post/report-wo…

When you take your Bank Holdiay Monday off, remember it didn't come from nowhere. It came from workers who risked everything fighting for their rights.

RMT welcomes conviction of Neo-Nazi terrorist who targeted @SadiqKhan Transport union RMT, expressed solidarity with @MayorofLondon Sadiq Khan after he was one of several people targeted by a violent Neo-Nazi terrorist. Alfie Coleman was 19 when he was apprehended in an MI5 sting while attempting to purchase a Makarov semi-automatic pistol, five magazines and 200 rounds of ammunition, using £3,500 he had saved from a part-time supermarket job. During the trial, it was revealed he had described some former colleagues and shoppers as “race traitors” for being in relationships with non-white partners. He had also planned to target a mosque and the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan who is Muslim. RMT general secretary Eddie Dempsey said: "Wherever fascism and racism rears its ugly head, our union will be there to oppose it. "In an environment where anti-Muslim sentiment has flourished, one of our leading elected politicians was a target for terrorism. “When any community or democratically elected politician in Britain is targeted because of their race or religion, it is our duty to stand together in unity, regardless of any differences we have in political outlook. “The organised working class and trade union movement always opposes division and hatred.”

Happy May Day! This #InternationalWorkersDay, we celebrate all that the labour movement has achieved for workers. Our rights at work weren't gifted to us, they were won through struggle. We're safer and stronger when we're together. #JoinAUnion
