LTB 200/25 – BIRMINGHAM BIN WORKERS MARCH AND RALLY – SATURDAY 20TH SEPTEMBER

Post by yellowbelly »

CWU busy supporting the BIn Workers - no issue with that if they've got their eye on the ball with our issues, but it's been very quiet on the situation with Pilot Offices, proposed way forward if the proposed method has been canned, equalisation terms...I could go on.

And according to the LTB they (CWU) contributed to the Bin Workers strike fund.

We have made donations to their strike fund and have used our communications channels to raise awareness of the dispute.
Perhaps our (Unite) manager members should sacrifice their doughnuts for a week and throw that in the tin for the strike fund.

When we were on strike didn't Unite's members continue to work at RM?

I really can't understand why the CWU are getting involved in another unions dispute, when they couldn't even settle ours satisfactory.

Setting the groundwork for a general strike? 2026 may yet recapitulate 1926! :left:
