BREAKING 🚨: Almost 40% of school support staff worry about being able to afford Christmas 🎄

And nearly 3/4 bring in food, Christmas clothing and coats for children in their care 🎅

This is why Labour reintroducing the School Support Staff Negotiating Body in 2026 is key 👏

Ambulance workers are worried this festive period.

Over 70% of ambulance workers fear burnout.

And nearly half worry about physical attacks.

This Christmastime - think about the ambulance staff who keep us safe - before you do anything daft 🎄🚑

The BMA are offering their own staff just 2%.

All as they are taking their members out on strike over a deal worth more.

It's hypocrisy: pure and simple.

Today’s budget is the final nail in the coffin for the Conservative’s failed austerity project.

Key public services and essential infrastructure suffered because the Tories made bad economic choices - we must never go back to those dark days.

The minimum wage rise is fantastic news for millions of low-paid workers.

It will lift people's pay and deliver more cash to spend on the high street.

Wages not based on ages has long been our call: the higher increase for young workers is a crucial step forward.

Today is Equal Pay Day: the day women effectively stop earning compared to men.

We fight inequality wherever we find it.

That’s why GMB Union members have launched more than 25 equal pay claims at employers across the UK 👏

The Tories' catastrophic COVID incompetence cannot be repeated.

Care homes were turned into morgues while No 10 Downing Street partied the night away.

Lessons must be learned.

On this day in 1897 Nye Bevan, the founder of our NHS, was born in South Wales.

Wylfa was ready for a large scale reactor, but we welcome the reintroduction of nuclear energy onto Ynys Môn

We look forward to delivering with Rolls Royce trade union organised construction of the Small Modular Reactors.

Looking at sites for large gigawatt reactors is good: it must deliver.

30 years ago the Disability Discrimination Act came into force.

It made it illegal to discriminate against disabled people - for the first time.

There’s still so much to do. But we celebrate the steps forward along the way.

On this day we remember them.

We will never forget.

Blocking water bosses' bonuses after dismal performances is what the public rightly expect

Water workers toil night and day to keep the taps running and spillages down

But instead of investment in infrastructure they see money sucked out of the system in bonuses

It must stop.

For many IVF isn’t a choice: it’s the only option to start a family.

Yet despite the toll it takes, there's no proper support at work.

Infertility is a medical condition, recognised by the World Health Organisation.

Workers need paid leave for it.
November 4, 2025 at 12:32 PM
The government have said they can only afford 2.5% for NHS Pay. That's not good enough.

Ministers must recognise the PRB is broken.

They need to come to the table themselves - and deliver the decent pay that NHS workers deserve.

Amazon cutting 14,000 jobs while registering astronomical profits shows everything that’s wrong with the business.

Bezos spends billions launching celebs into space, but he can’t treat his loyal workforce with dignity.

We'll always stand with Amazon workers.
