Successful dismissal appeal in Fratton today (don’t go to work without us!). Had to bus it from Haslemere as SWR was up the spout. The 700 to “City & the Hard” (surely an 80s football firm?) even showed rail departures—shame the railway didn’t!

General Secretary Eddie Dempsey asking reps from the train operating companies across the country their thoughts on taking industrial action if they don’t get a no-strings attached pay deal. The message is emphatic!

@RMTunion Any location details?

🚆❌ Filthy trains this New Year’s Eve? DLR cleaners are striking after contractor Bidvest Noonan refused proper sick pay. They keep trains safe and clean. The blame lies with contractor Bidvest Noonan, not the workers. x.com/RMTunion/statu…

𝗩𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗬𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗸𝗲! I support the @RMTunion action even though I personally support Body Cams.

Two years ago today representing @RMTunion at the first ‘special @The_TUC congress’ to be called since Thatchers anti union laws in 1982. This one was designed to decide how Unions practically delivered our position of non compliance to the Minimum Service Levels Bill.

I’m standing for RMT Relief Regional Organiser (South).

Introducing new employees to the RMT at the GWR corporate induction earlier, now popping into Reading Branch meeting if anyone is around and fancies a natter.

@grantshapps Sounds like Flange Squeal to me!

Deeply shocked by this weekend’s train attack. My thoughts are with those injured - especially the heroic rail worker now fighting for his life. Having worked with the rail industry, I know how vital split-second decisions are. The driver, staff & police likely saved lives.

Went down to the Demo against the changes to the Skilled Worker visas. The imposition of changes without debate and without protecting those who built lives here in good faith is just wrong on every level and must be stopped.

The @UniteLondonEast Pickets at Westbourne Park Bus Garage are keeping the Carnival Vibe going! Bob Marley on the system & burgers on the BBQ. Sun is Shining! Solidarity from the @RMTunion

Your Party being taken over by Our Party - is this farce supposed to be satire? I know we live in a post truth society but I honestly can’t keep up.

Big turnout at the @rmtunion protest outside the Home Office against the changes to skilled worker visas which could see hundreds of our members deported. Joined by @zarahsultana @johnmcdonnellMP and many others! “We Live Here” attire provided by @BobbyVylan

@lukadadiani @RMTunion @TfL Your message needs a decoder ring and a grammar rescue squad

@Steve_On_Strike @RMTunion @TfL No need for overpaid staff. I’d rather save 20p on my turn fair than pay for thei wages

I stood with the @RMTunion at TUC23 to #saveourticketoffices on the mainline. Now history repeats with @TfL planning the same attack on the Elizabeth Line. We beat it before, we’ll beat it again.

My ‘commute’ today was 5 hours by bicycle as I wanted to stop at as many @RMTunion pickets as I could along my route. Acton Town x3, White City, Earls Court and Paddington. Now off to Gloucester to represent a member in Disciplinary. #tubestrike

Useful explainer from a member of London Underground station staff ⬇️

@NoContextBrits Spanking @BobbyVylan

@RMTunion Just mocked it up for giggles.

@Steve_On_Strike Where did that come from? Love it 🥰

It’s no mystery, it’s me 😉 The real mystery is why people send these daft tweets?

And we're off! Our first Tweet! 🔥 Introducing the trailer to our upcoming film 'Cooperation Nation' #CooperationNation
