Pleased to announce I have been appointed as a trade union representative on the Fair Work Agency Advisory Board. This is a vital opportunity to shape the world of work, bring back a level-playing field for decent employers and provide security and power for workers everywhere. Let’s get to work. gov.uk/government/new…

I urge my constituents to #StandByYourPostie. @RoyalMail is failing it's staff and failing our communities and everything @DaveWardGS says here is spot on. If Royal Mail do not honour the agreements they have entered into they should be taken into public ownership.

It's like scrapping train WiFi if its broken, ignoring potholes on the roads and accepting that our seas are now filled with sewage. We can't keep accepting that going backwards is the only way - our country deserves so much better than this. #StandByYourPostie

“I can categorically deny that.” Parliament read him the receipts. Postal workers from Scotland to London all say the same thing: parcels first, letters if there’s time. @liambyrnemp: “We’re just not in a position to believe you Mr Kretinsky.” Damning.

A 500-year-old national institution is in meltdown. Barely three quarters of First Class letters are arriving on time, costing families and small businesses across the country. Tomorrow, Royal Mail's new owner appears before @CommonsBTC for the first time. We need answers. Watch live, Tuesday 24th March, 2.30pm: parliamentlive.tv/event/index/53…

CWU Glasgow & District Amal Branch Officer Hugh Gaffney’s debut book about one of the biggest mining disasters in British history is a powerful tribute to those who ‘paid the price of coal’ – and the communities that stayed strong. cwu.org/news/putting-a…

An absolute tragedy. The government must intervene and fix the broken compensation scheme before more lives are ruined. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

If you need a letter delivered, you're better off delivering it by hand yourself🤯 Lauren Edwards MP calls out Royal Mail failing our communities AGAIN. Public ownership NOW.

27,000 new starters gone. Services collapsing. And the government just waved it through. This isn’t mismanagement, it’s asset stripping a 500-year-old public institution. Enough. telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…

There’s no reason why Royal Mail must face decline. But getting to a brighter future means decent working terms, not copying Amazon, and respecting a workforce which is the company’s biggest strength. Me in @tribunemagazine tribunemag.co.uk/2026/03/revers…

We can’t let Royal Mail go the way of water companies, where bosses are rewarded with millions for causing chaos workers have to deal with. We need Royal Mail honouring its agreement with the CWU that sets out a positive vision for the company and treats workers better.

Since 2022, Royal Mail has imposed worse terms and wages on new employees. This has caused a recruitment crisis which threatens its future. It won’t be resolved by adopting the Amazon model - but by levelling workers up, not down. Me on @BBCBreakfast👇

A message from the General Secretary. CWU members have sent 15,000 emails to MPs on the situation in Royal Mail. We are also seeing images from meetings across the UK backing the union and rejecting Royal Mails failed USO proposals. We will update reps and members next week on the whole situation but for now please keep contacting your MPs and please keep the workplace meetings coming. EMAIL YOUR MP NOW cwu.org/mp-protect-pos…
