Good meeting in parliament today with Unite the union: join a union reps and members about the funding crisis facing councils. We need fair and proper funding for local government so that our brilliant public sector workers can deliver the services we all rely on.

💔First Adrian lost his son, then Bham City Council threatened to take his family's home. The people behind the Birmingham bins strike matter. What the council & the government-backed commissioners are trying to do to them is a disgrace. 🙏Thanks to Adrian for sharing his story &
