Solidarity with the workers in Birmingham from all at the Glasgow Shipping Branch and the Western Isles Port Committee. "Without our brains and muscle not a single wheel will turn"
I’m in Birmingham this morning to join bin workers on the picket line. No worker should face an £8,000 cut to their pay. An injury to one is an injury to all. Let’s tax the billionaires and give to those who keep our country running!

Thank you for your support @NASUWT @BFAWUOfficial & @pcs_union When your employer tries to take £8k off you, threatens you with the sack & claims everyone blames you for the chaos in Birmingham, it means a lot to know that people are behind you. Give us a ❤️ & show…
Three general secretaries. One united front. Matt Wrack (NASUWT), Sarah Woolley (BFAWU), and Fran Heathcote (PCS) stood shoulder to shoulder this morning at the mega picket in Birmingham, backing the bin workers and sending a clear message: The trade union movement is united,…
✊Solidarity with @BMAResidents striking for fair pay. The government needs to get around the table and resolve this dispute. Medics, like educators, deserve to be paid fairly for the vital work they do. @TheBMA theguardian.com/society/2025/j…
Unity Is Strength @RMTunion members supporting the #BirminghamBinStrike today at the #Megapicket
Well said @UnionSteveW of @fbunational ✊ “We expected more of this govt, we expect more of a @UKLabour led council …@AngelaRayner might say there’s a fair deal on the table - when you’re expecting workers to drop £8,000 in their wages, that is outrageous, that is unacceptable”
PCS General Secretary Fran Heathcote speaking in support of the Birmingham Bin Strikes at today’s Mega Picket with a powerful message of unity, strength and determination. #PCS #BirminghamBinStrike #Megapicket @strike_map
