It was a privilege to join the RMT on their picket line in Kettering on Thursday 23rd June. It’s important that our union stands by the RMT, indeed any union who is forced into a dispute over members terms and conditions and the very survival of jobs that support them and their families This dispute has not of course, been aided by the deliberate attempt of this government to interfere in the negotiations in plain sight of every media platform available to them. A Tory government has, once again, set out their stall to undermine trade unions and deflect public attention away from their disastrous and corrupt handling of of the economy, which has led workers and their families in all sectors suffering hardship and with no other alternative but to fight back. Our union the GMB stands in solidarity with them and all trade unions who have had enough of seeing their members suffering the deliberate erosion of living standards, while senior managers and executive’s salaries in all sectors are accelerated. It’s obscene and it must be challenged.
Alan Irwin Branch Secretary, GMB Northants Community Branch.
