Happy birthday & best wishes in retirement to the legend that is Mick Lynch!
As @rmtunion.bsky.social General Secretary, he’s been bold, principled & inspiring — a true champion for his members & the working class.
Mick’s leadership strengthened the union movement & he’ll be sorely missed.

Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too.
