Our newly elected Branch Chair, Cas, was really proud to welcome Councillor Kris Brown to another of our vibrant picket lines outside @MuseumLiverpool. The support keeps flooding in. It's time @NML_Muse did the right thing. Value your workers. #NMLPayUp – at Wallasey, England

Absolute privilege to support nurses & health workers on strike picket lines today & speak at rally outside St Thomas’ Hospital. This is the hospital across bridge from Parliament that has treated & saved the lives of MPs over the years. ⁦@theRCN⁩ ⁦@unisontheunion⁩
