Sending solidarity to the #GMBThree who were found not guilty this morning. ✊ They should never have been arrested and this should never have gone to court. Trade unionists must be free to protest and campaign to defend and improve the living standards of workers.

Although some of the union busting tactics taking place in the US have occurred here in the UK it is fair to say US stores have a much more difficult task. What this does show is that unless Apple are legally required we cannot trust them to act in good faith with unions.

A wonderful solidarity message from striking GMB Midlands members at Amazon Coventry to striking GMB Scotland members at DSM Dalry. At least it was sunny in Ayrshire!

Pleased to be with President Barbara Plant and Vice President Malcolm Sage in Inverness yesterday, meeting GMB Scotland members at SGN. Concerned to hear about health & safety issues with contractors, but good to talk about hydrogen and home heating with workers in the gas industry.

Great to visit SGL Carbon in Muir of Ord where they produce high-tech carbon products used across manufacturing, including renewables. Highlights the complexity of our energy sector - carbon supporting the renewables industry, but dependent on oil and gas.

Met with workers employed by the contractor Robertson working for NHS Highland. GMB members successfully fought for Agenda for Change terms and conditions, but strike action is still on the table until the money is in pay packets. Solidarity. ✊
