Solidarity with all striking workers today. Only through unionisation can this kind of action occur - it's inspiring to see the turnout for change, from the university staff to teachers, transport workers to NHS employees. The unions are on your side!
Whitehall looking a little busy… 🤩✊ #RightToStrike #ucuRISING

We at Book Branch stand in solidarity with Reach who have voted to strike - fighting for a fair and decent pay rise is every worker's right.
In just over a week, NUJ members at Reach will strike in their fight for a fair, decent pay rise. The NUJ is open and willing to negotiate an improved pay award but Reach is refusing to engage. We know many of you stand in solidarity with members and your messages are seen ✊

Solidarity to the Reach NUJ chapel in their efforts to fight back against low pay 👏

A very informative thread here from the new @BloomsburyUnion chapel 👇
Well, we guess the secret is out. The Bloomsbury Union is seeking voluntary recognition from Bloomsbury in the UK. You might have seen an article about it in @thebookseller. It included a quote from the company with a few things we'd like to correct...

If you’re joining @NUJofficial @NUJBook and you need to put a referrer on the form, you can name our Mother of Chapel, Zainab Juma. You don’t technically need one but the form doesn’t work without it so 🤷‍♀️

If you’re working in UK publishing and reading about the editors leaving in the US and wanting to do something to help improve publishing here (as we’re also overworked and underpaid) then you can join our union @NUJBook, we’re working to help UK publishing workers.

Most publishing workers can join (including designers, publicists, rights managers - pretty much any job that is publishing specific. Just get in touch if you're unsure)
