With BASSA membership exceeding 10,600, we are the largest branch of Unite in the entire country, we also have the highest number of both female and young people as members. This means that we are not only a strong union now, but one that will continue to be so in the future.

Andy Green Chair, Unite Executive Council. I support Sharon Graham for general secretary, Sharon has transformed Unite. No longer do we cosy up to politicians, we hold them to account, as it should be. 1/2

Almost five years ago, together we began to change our Union. We took our Union ๐๐š๐œ๐ค ๐ญ๐จ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐–๐จ๐ซ๐ค๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ž - back to our reps and members. We uncovered the truth around the wrongdoing and alleged fraud surrounding the Birmingham hotel and conference centre.

And together we have delivered hundreds of millions of pounds back into the pockets of members from successful disputes alone. Profiteers exposed. Cash to politicians cut. Winter fuel campaign won. Billions secured for steel. Government contracts won for British aerospace. ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ฆ๐š๐๐ž. ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ค๐ž๐ฉ๐ญ.

Today I'm with @Unite_Community members at the National Industrial Sector Conference in Brighton. For the first time in @unitetheunion's history, our political fund is now used to mobilise members & communities on issues that matter to them instead of handing it over to #Labour

For those unable to fight with us, we must fight for them, for workers brave enough to have a voice & risk their lives. People like Carol Ng, imprisoned in Hong Kong indefinitely. Her crime? Speaking out for democratic trade union rights. Solidarity with Carol โœŠ @IDC_Dockers

Mark Regev claiming that what is โ€˜obsceneโ€™ is that โ€˜South Africa has manipulated the Genocide Convention in order to serve the interests of Hamasโ€™. Israel is a pariah state prepared to say and do anything. Sanctions now.
