Well done! Under the current circumstances, far more of the workforce should be considering taking up collective bargaining power.
You’re a good un 😊✊
one person at a time.
Nice one ☺️
I can’t join a union 🙁
Congratulations, everyone who has the option to join a union should
Great stuff, next up is make sure you vote on the things they propose. The next worse thing to no union is a toothless one.
Based.
A lot of other people will follow in the coming months. It’s quickly becoming hard to justify not being in one.
Good on you.
Welcome to the Union! I’m in PCS too 😁
Woot!
Although not the happiest with PCS for putting up zero resistance on employers changing how
Long Covid was treated in regards to covid leave.
One of us! Welcome to the club.
I really feel like this will help us turn a corner.
I am so sick of the CEO’s making millions while those at the bottom suffer.
I also joined this week. Purely to vote for the CS strike in September
They are a great union. Well done.
I left my union (Usdaw) for my local reps being bloody useless at my previous job, but I’ve decided to rejoin and put my name forward to become a shop steward.
You know, someday, perhaps there will be thanks to the Tories for being the greatest force for union membership in decades.
Was in PCS for a while as a rep and we do sweet FA, a lot of the time it’s a circle jerk patting eachother on the back. I wish unions in the civil service and the like were better
I work at a Primark warehouse for an agency, does anyone know if there a union that I’d be able to join?
Yesssss
Solidarity ✊
Well done comrade it’s time for us to demand a better standard of living!
If you are contemplating joining one, just do it sooner rather than later. The quicker you’re in, the quicker they will have your back
Severance
Brilliant! I’m a member of Unite myself.
Ok, dumb question but how do you know which union to join? I work for the NHS and looks like I could join Unite or Unison. Do you just pick the one that sounds more appealing or is cheaper etc?
I did the same recently. PCS dues are perfectly reasonable and theyve currently balloting for some big change
Same union as me, I joined earlier this year, never thought I’d feel the need to.
Nice one. A jump in Union membership may just mean that boardrooms think twice about fucking people over.
I’m in the FBU. Solidarity to the rail workers✊
I’m for unions in general, but PCS were the union at my previous employer and they were completely useless. By the time they bothered to even make a statement, most of the redundancies had already taken place.
Yes I’m going to join Unison. I’ve been humming and harring over it for a while since it’s £22 a month for me. But with he current state of politics in this country it seems the only working class representation and possible route to change is via unions at present. We can see now how the establishment are banding together again now there is a possible threat to them.
do they still issue those legendary diaries?
Americans; watch, and learn.
It’s the sensible thing to do. You wouldn’t drive without insurance, why work without a union?
Well done! The only way we can defend what rights we already have, let alone fight for new ones, is to do it collectively. We’ve go strength in numbers and to paraphrase the late Bob Crow, if we all spit at once then we can drown the bastards!
That’s my old union in my civil service days.
Well done.
Fantastic! 😎
Joining the union is one thing – but be involved in it too. Unions are strongest when their members are active and contributing to them. Keep your unions leaders on their toes, and you’ll get out much more then you put in. good luck!
Minting those membership cards so fast the label’s out of allignment.
Good show!
The first thing I did after starting employment when moving to the UK as an permanent academic was to join the union. Well done on you.

Public and commercial services? Isn’t that every service then?
That’s great! Get involved – attend meetings and join the WhatsApp groups for your industry. A union is only as good as it’s members!
