Fish Porters at Billingsgate market will launch a campaign to save the historic market in London’s East End.
Campaigning against the cuts, defending public services, helping young people through the recession and protecting pensions are just some of the issues contained in the preliminary agenda for this year's TUC Congress, published today (Monday).
RAIL UNION RMT has today written to Transport Secretary Phillip Hammond, the Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) and the Health and Safety Executive demanding assurances that urgent action is being taken on rail safety following notice from the Judge at the Potters Bar Inquest that there is a continuing risk of fatalities eight years on from the disaster.
TRANSPORT UNION RMT has tabled a motion for the TUC Congress in Manchester in September which sets out a blueprint for a co-ordinated trade union and community fight back against the cuts programme and the 'class warfare' of the ConDem Government.
Unite, the largest union in the country, fears the government, media, pension industry ‘experts’ and private sector employers are acting ‘like a lynch mob’ in demanding reductions in public sector pensions.
Fears are growing that the ConDem Government are planning to renege on a commitment by the previous Labour Government that money would be invested into desperately needed medical research for mesothelioma, the incurable lung cancer.
