Now is the time to stand up for what we believe in. If you’ve had enough of this rotten government, and if you’re fed up with everything going up but wages, then join us in London this Saturday.
We celebrate the bonds that bring us together as workers and trade unionists. The fundamental message of May Day – friendship between workers of all backgrounds and nationalities – resonates more strongly than ever before.
At long last a new normal is emerging in workplaces across the UK, as the vaccine programme provides greater protection against the threat of coronavirus.
In her New Year message, TUC General Secretary Frances O’Grady thanks key workers for keeping the country running through the pandemic. And she calls on the government to invest in levelling up all parts of the UK and achieving full employment.
As we face the challenges of the 2020s, all parts of the labour and trade union movement must pull together. We need to listen to the working-class communities we exist to serve. We need to show humility, reflect – and then pick ourselves up and prepare for the battles ahead.
With a general election around the corner, I know you’ll join us on that journey in the weeks and months to come and help us deliver a government of the people, for the people.
