I joined 108 MPs in opposing the Universal Credit & PIP Bill. 10,000 in Salford alone could be affected—and they’re terrified. Overall, it’s estimated the cuts could push 400,000 more into poverty. It’s not right. The cuts must be scrapped.
Met with @UberUK management in #London today. Raised key issues affecting our members: Earnings & dynamic pricing Multiple stops & driver say Ratings & false allegations Goodwill payments Taxi Tax & AVs And much more.

Great to get the chance to support striking whisky workers at InBeverage today. The company celebrates profit-boosting trade deals negotiated by the Labour government. They should also support the basic rights the government is legislating for - union recognition & bargaining.
The Council has entered into partnership with the Greater Manchester Pension Fund to build another 1,600 homes - including at least 20% that will be capped at the Manchester Living Rent, one of the cheapest levels of rent available to our residents. orlo.uk/d7sYa
Happy #PrideMonth to everyone in Clayton and beyond! For centuries, LGBTQ+ stories were silenced by prejudice and punishment. Those that survive remind us of our diverse past—and that with hate and discrimination still on the rise, solidarity matters more than ever. 🌈✊
Happy #PrideMonth to everyone in the GMB family! 🏳️🌈 We’re proud to stand up for LGBTQ+ people in the UK and worldwide. Pride is a protest – never forget that. ✊
With another failed takeover of Thames Water - when will we say enough is enough? The private sector has failed Thames Water, its customers, the workforce, and the environment. It’s time to end this tragedy and for the Government to nationalise Thames Water.
