Spotted around the @RootedFinance office 👀 Dozens of stickers calling for reinstatement of 83% of Rooted Finance workers who were dismissed days after successfully balloting to strike. Solidarity with @RFworkersunion supporters who are taking matters into their own hands!

Our comrades in the gameworkers branch are fighting sackings at @LockwoodLKWD - creators of @AvakinOfficial . Disgusting that workers are being sacked at Christmas whilst their boss takes in £360k a year. Lend your support - retweet - and shame Lockwood 👇

CEO of Debt Advice Charity @RootedFinance Muna Yassin will happily meet with bailiffs, but was so against discussions with her own workforce that she sacked 83% of them after they tried to unionise. More shameful behaviour from charity bosses.

Workers are being forced to work in unsafe conditions, without full sick pay, and unlivable SSP. It is no wonder the pandemic is out of control. Through trade union workplace organizing, we can protect ourselves & secure public health ✊ Join us today:

@krishgm Yes a minority might be breaking the rules but far, far more are having to work in unsafe conditions (factories, supermarkets, takeaways, schools) and many have no safety need if they are required to isolate.

How can we, as workers in Britain, act in solidarity with Palestinians & the Palestinian general strike? @NotesFrom_Below offer some brilliant suggestions. Read below 👇 #PalestineOnStrike

As Palestinians call a general strike against Israeli crimes, workers in Britain should take the solidarity movement into their workplaces. Here is what you can do: #GazaUnderAttack #SaveSheikhJarrah #PalestineOnStrike

Within the charity and non-profit sectors, a culture of self-sacrifice often justifies overwork, unpaid overtime, and low pay. We are organising to change that. Join the @IWGBunion today 👇

We’re in Bermondsey with local supporters where @RachelBentleyNB is a Cllr, and standing to be MP. Rachel is a trustee at @RootedFinance , who have just fired 83% of their frontline staff after trying to unionise. Time for Rachel to step up as a trustee & reinstate the workers.

So, @amolrajan @bbcnickrobinson , you’ve got Andy Haldane talking about young workers on worsening incomes and pensions but you didn’t ask him why he’s contributing to these problems at @theRSAorg ? Our members are in dispute over pay and their pensions being slashed in half!

Did the Budget do enough to give young people a spring in their step? The Bank of England's former chief economist, Andy Haldane, says no. He tells @amolrajan and @bbcnickrobinson why on The Today Podcast. Hunt’s Budget - will it make a difference?

@oonskie Absolutely. And within charities over the UK - low pay, systemic use of insecure contracts, and overwork are endemic. Which is why we are unionising the charity sector - which itself needs fundamental reform. We want to see solidarity, not charity. Join us today.
