On International Women's Day, Hannah Spencer used her maiden speech to highlight some of the many working class, trade unionist women who began the fight we continue today. She calls for other working class people to join her as an MP. Bus drivers, nursery workers, scaffolders etc. GPTUG agrees. ✊

Where I’m from, we give a nod to the statue of Emmeline Pankhurst, we remember the farm worker and seamstress Hannah Mitchell, the Trade Unionist Mary Quaile and the mill worker Annie Kenney. And of course Elsie Plant, who’s from just down the road from me, and who I named one of my beautiful greyhounds after.

I think of these brilliant women a lot and especially today as we debate International Women’s Day.

And I think of many others too, from pits, slums and factories. The women who changed the system so that I could be here. The women of colour, whose names we will never know because history didn’t bother to recognise or remember them. But we do today, because without their struggle and their fight and their determination to stick together, none of this could be possible.

...

And our struggles may be different, but our humanity is the same. We always stick together- we always fight for each other. And that is what I want us to take forward from International Women’s Day – and to do that every single day.

The cleaners, the bus drivers, the nursery workers, the foster carers, the home carers, the unpaid carers, the teaching assistants, the bin collectors, the warehouse workers, the delivery drivers, the school dinner staff, the lollipop wardens, the supermarket workers, the posties, the library staff, the kitchen porters, the farm workers, the mechanics, the groundworkers, the scaffolders, the electricians, the plasterers, and the plumbers.

We deserve to be here. Every single one of us. And I will make space for you to come and join me, to get to have your say.

Unite votes to cut Labour funding by 40%. UNISON elects Andrea Egan as general secretary. The Greens soar past Labour in popularity amongst NEU members. We are witnessing historic shifts in the trade union movement.

Photo by Green Party Trade Union Group on March 12, 2026. May be an image of banner and text that says "Unite the UNION Unite votes to cut funding to Labour by 40%! Green Party Trade Union Group Statement Green Party TRADE UNION GROUP Promoted by the Green Party Trade Union Group (Green Party) a at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ.".

Green Party Trade Union Group Statement on Unite Affiliation Decision

The decision by Unite to cut its financial affiliation to the Labour Party reflects a deep and growing frustration among working people who feel abandoned by a party that was founded to represent them.

From the treatment of Birmingham bin workers to uncertainty facing energy workers and the ongoing undervaluing of public sector staff, Labour’s response to the challenges in 2026 facing working people is too often out of touch, managerial and disconnected from the reality of workers’ lives.

Trade unionists are right to demand better.

Across the country, working people are facing a cost of living crisis, insecure work and a hollowed out industrial base. We need political leadership that stands clearly and unapologetically on the side of workers.

Workers also need a serious plan for the future of jobs and industry. The transition away from fossil fuels must not be used as an excuse to abandon workers. Instead, it must be a planned and properly funded just transition that guarantees new, secure unionised jobs and empowers workers, bringing pride and economic regeneration to communities.

That is why increasing numbers of trade unionists are looking to the Green Party.

The Greens support the right to strike, strong collective bargaining, higher pay, secure work and a just transition that protects and empowers workers and communities.

The Green Party Trade Union Group stands in solidarity with workers organising for dignity, security and power in the workplace.

We would encourage all workers who want a political party that truly backs trade unionism to join the Green Party and the Green Party Trade Union Group to help build a stronger voice for workers in politics.

The minimum wage for people over 21 is wholly inadequate as it is. For those under, it's utterly shameful. Farage's suggestion that it needs to be brought down further is shameful. People starting out in the workplace deserve better than him, better than Reform, and better than Labour.

ASLEF urges the Government to rethink the proposed reforms to the welfare system

ASLEF is firmly anti-austerity.

This legislation will impact the most vulnerable in our society, pushing hundreds of thousands of people into poverty, people who have already experienced 14 years of the Conservative's economic attacks.

There must be real consultation on all proposed changes and proper time must be given to consider the results before a vote on any changes can take place.

We urge the Government to listen to the concerns raised by Labour politicians and disabled organisations and charities and reconsider this course of action.
