West Midlands Trade Union leaders of Unite, Unison and GMB are joining forces to fight the malicious government attack on workers and campaign against the Trade Union Bill.
Join them to discuss The Trade Union Bill and the Attack on Civil Liberties.
Thursday 29 October – Arrive 6.45pm for 7pm start
The Trade Union Bill puts the rights of working people even further under the thumb, with our public sector workforce bearing the brunt of the latest government attack, but how long before private sector workers are subject to the same restrictions?
Confirmed speakers so far:
• Gerard Coyne – Regional Secretary Unite the Union West Midlands
• Franco Buonaguro – Unison Regional Head of Health
• Joe Morgan – Regional Secretary GMB Union Birmingham & West Midlands
• Robert Smith – Employment Lawyer Thompsons Solicitors
• Will it spell the end of strike action in the public sector as voting thresholds rise?
• Are we entering into a new era of state sponsored surveillance as unions are forced to hand over all information relating to picketing and protests, including social media?
• What’s the impact of employers hiring agency staff to break strikes??
• How can we be sure we’re not breaking the law when taking part in protests supporting strike action???
