Excellent write up of the events on Saturday in Dalston by Ben Smoke of huck. Direct action gets the goods... huckmag.com/perspectives/p…

"I am afraid to go to work because I am treated like a criminal. When we are victims of crime, such as vehicle theft or workplace violence, police ignore us. But when we are trying to earn an honest living, we are harassed just for doing our jobs." iwgb.org.uk/en/post/dalsto…

Couriers deserve respect and dignity in our workplace. Instead, we get harassment from law enforcement trying to make us disappear. Today, the community came together to demand an end to this mistreatment! Sign: actionnetwork.org/letters/justic…

Nepalese workers that came last year to cover shortages in the agricultural sector created by Brexit paid more than £3000 in "extortionate" fees. This raises questions about the underfunding of UK labour enforcement. Our latest for @tbij & The Bureau Local thebureauinvestigates.com/stories/2022-0…

Are you part of a group that organises or attends protests or direct action? Please send this round your groups so that everyone taking part can be better prepared for potential police responses!

The fifth anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire is a week today. The shocking revelations from the inquiry have been heard by too few. So here is a thread which I will update over the next few days with some of the things you may have missed:

New feature on the shifting tactics of union avoidance. Many union busting consultants now market themselves as “diversity trainers.” Captive meeting seminars designed to defeat labor unions are filled with social justice rhetoric. interc.pt/3tGNAlx

🚨🚨immigration raid happening now at outside a property in Kensal Rise.🚨🚨🚨

. Lee Fang discusses the union busters' exploitation of woke language. WATCH: youtu.be/qAzX_F7c2nw

INCREDIBLE!! Huge crowds of people in Peckham have successfully stopped an immigration raid. Police and home office bullies out of our communities. ✊

The new home of EDI discourse is management's union-busting efforts. The cynicism is utterly chilling, and a total must-read for labour advocates. The evolution of union-busting interc.pt/3tGNAlx by Lee Fang

1/ "The union is getting results!" BIG VICTORY for our riders in Dalston following their boycott of Wingstop UK 🇬🇧 a few weeks ago. Listen to our members Debora, Ueder, and Ana Thais talk about how they organised against the mistreatment of riders!

2/ Wingstop restaurant was notorious in the area for mistreating riders, even denying them toilet access. So the riders decided to take ACTION. The following week they received this email from Deliveroo MEETING ALL THEIR DEMANDS!

4/ “If drivers from other areas have the same problems, you should know that, united, drivers can get all the rights we deserve!” Every time riders take action together and win, our collective power gets stronger and we push up standards for delivery riders everywhere!

5/ Big shout out also to the 200+ members of the local community in Hackney who filled up the email inboxes of Wingstop management to let them know that its mistreatment of riders was unacceptable.

🚨 BREAKING: @JUSTEATUK subcontractor Stuart’s own mapping system is broken, and its leading drivers to lose their jobs for NO REASON during a cost of living crisis! Read and RT the shocking thread! theguardian.com/business/2022/…

This broken mapping system is dangerous to drivers and it’s disgusting that Just Eat UK and Stuart response is to fire innocent drivers. We support the IWGB and their campaign for justice for the drivers.

As news of the corruption of Uber has swept around the world through the leaked #UberFiles, I have been eagerly awaiting GMBs response….and I have to say it is as robust as ever! 🤮 newstatesman.com/spotlight/2022…

Everybody deserves a voice at work. That’s why a majority of staff at the RSA have come together and chosen the IWGB to be their union. Now more than ever, we need democratic workplaces and worker power. It’s time for RSA to recognise the IWGB!
