The The Labour Party party proposes to end new North Sea and licences.

But so far there's no detailed plan showing how they'll protect the thousands of skilled jobs and the communities that depend on those wages.

Look out for our billboards going up around with a message to The Labour Party...

No ban on North Sea and licences without a detailed plan to safeguard the jobs and communities that rely on them.

🚨Oil & Gas: No ban without a plan!

Cutting licences in the North Sea is premature & irresponsible, The Labour Party needs to pull back from this policy. Unite the union: join a union will not stand by and let these workers be thrown on the scrap heap. Unite For A Workers' Economy

We're thrilled to be at LGSM 40th anniversary event tonight.
Let's honour our pit communities by fighting to make sure our steel, oil and gas workers and their communities aren't thrown on the scrapheap in the same way.

We've always argued that 'cost of living crisis' doesn't explain what has happened to us in recent years.

Its a with big businesses like banks, energy firms and supermarkets exploiting the pandemic to boost profits at our expense.

Average corporate profit margins have increased by 30% compared to before the pandemic, while we're left paying more for all our essential goods and services.

That's price-gouging.

Ken Murphy’s £5m wage increase is a slap in the face to the millions of struggling workers and their families who paid for it through higher food bills. Tesco has taken advantage of the to rake in obscene profits, it's NOT the only one.

The economy is broken. That’s why, from workplace to community we are driving a UK-wide strategy to help bring change to ‘heartland’ communities following the failure of politicians to act. Keep up to date and get involved…

The Tories are “working hard to ensure we stay resilient in this sector” by giving @tatasteeluk £500 million of money to throw thousands of skilled workers on the dole and wreck our industry.

Welsh First Minister Vaughan Gething visited Tata Steel UK in Mumbai last week.
We need to see politicians taking action to defend UK but given the urgency and what's at stake, why isn't Rishi Sunak involved?
Is it because the Tories have NO plan and NO industrial strategy?

Speakers at our For Steel night in talked about the fear in communities that mass job cuts could turn them into ghost towns.
They also talked about the real anger felt towards a government that seems intent on doing nothing to help.

.Unite the union: join a union does not accept the logic of making any redundancies when steel demand is set to rocket. We have shown that another future is possible and it is already happening in other countries. Unite For A Workers' Economy
