I see my views on fire and rehire were alluded to in the House of Lords last night. To be clear, I support both the Employment Rights Bill and the amended fire and rehire clause and am grateful for government engagement with unions on these issues.
Good to talk to @MattChorley yesterday about trade unions and the new government. There's a lot still to do, but we have clearly seen a change in attitude towards working with unions and a respect for our role representing working people.
Happy to have added my name to this letter in the Times today on behalf of @ProspectUnion members in the civil service, alongside @FDAGenSec and colleagues at the @instituteforgov

I’m looking forward to speaking at this conference on 17 July. I’ll be making the case for employee voice and collaborative partnership working between the space sector and trade unions as a vital part of the growth agenda.

Delighted to see this recognition agreement between Great British Energy – Nuclear and Prospect Union. High quality unionised jobs, with fair pay and favourable terms and conditions are central to our clean power mission.
