Today, I was with reps at Bestfood Banbury engaging with management. This is a company that engages with Unions. If you are unlucky enough not to have a union in your workplace, contact GMB Union to help make the difference from pay to conditions. #membersfirst #makeworkbetter

Raja & I met with St. Albans licensing today and discussed multiple matters from Tarrif increases to CCTV. There has also been a geofencing put in place after representations to prevent app drivers from congregating near the rank. #membersfirst #makeworkbetter

Over 2 years ago, a member mentioned that his child had broken her ankle at school, was moved incorrectly, and has long-term damage. I recommended using Union Solicitors vs. The School, who finally admitted liability today. Unions look out for families, too. #membersfirst #makeworkbetter

Today Labours MP Danny Beals & AM Bassam Mahfouz & members met Colham & Cowley residents who really don't know who their councillors are! Pictures tell it all. Residents spoke about failures of councillors & Online services accessibility for those without tech skills. Conservative sins. Labour wins.

At Bidfood in Harlow. I did not need to take the @SUBWAY this morning to get here but we did speak to more than @FiveGuysUK & all genders. The petition for recognition has started. Say no to crafty employers. Bad bosses are always welcome to @MoJGovUK #membersfirst

Thanks to Shantu Ferdous , Simon Rush , Rokhsana & Newham Labour group for making us so welcome last night @KohinoorGrillandThrill. Three MPs James Asser, Stephen Timms, Rupa Huq, a legion of councillors & a clutch of trade unionists. With the incomparable Dean Gilligan (He loves electric cars.)

@OttoCarUK are now delaying drivers who wish to obtain footage of incidents and advising them that they will have to become data controllers themselves if they require footage. Perhaps drivers should sign up to the ICO and demand daily downloads to protect themselves.

The below is G4S answer to staff with financial difficulty. Basically its help yourself. Highlighting why the same individuals who claim society is broken then attack those in a that need assistance/advice. If G4S want to add social responsibility on their site then prove it.

The problem is not the product @ Ford or Stellantis. It's the short warranty & disappointing customer service. Some manufacturers offer 7 years warranty for a reason. Perhaps Ford & Stellantis should look at their reviews & hire real consumers to change their customer approach.

Today, following a speeding notice, we received confirmation that our car plates had been cloned. I am in no doubt the perpetrators will be caught very soon.

Tonight, we opened a pouch of Quality Street...in honesty, I think I would now call it Inferior Street. Whilst I am lucky to be able to have sweets at this time of year, I am mindful that consumers are being short-changed.

Deliveroo kicked out our rep from two separate members consultation meetings when they challenged the company. Deliveroo's HR are less keen on office staff having a union after giving couriers union protections. A 1 🌟 rating for #deliveroo HR. #makeworkbetter #membersfirst
