Andrea Egan: “Under my leadership UNISON’s solidarity with Ukrainian unions and workers will continue and grow”
We were very pleased that the speakers at the 4 March Ukraine Solidarity Campaign rally at the UK Parliament for the fourth anniversary of the full-scale invasion included Andrea Egan, new General Secretary of public-service union UNISON. The UK's largest trade union, with around 1.3 million members, UNISON affiliated to USC in 2024. It was great to have its new leader, already such a powerful presence in the labour movement, speaking vocally in solidarity with Ukraine.

We're grateful to the valuable work from the members of the CPG, @mickantoniw.bsky.social, @carolynthomasms.bsky.social, @delythjewell.bsky.social, @janedodds.bsky.social & Janet Finch-Saunders. It's a truly cross party problem - no one wants litter - and the solutions are set out in the booklet.
This is a beach, strewn with pebbles and rocks, with patches of sand in between. Behind it is the sea, in front a patch of grassland. An old metal sign has been degraded by the salty air, but still clearly says 'Keep Wales Tidy - Take your litter HOME'. A more modern anti-litter sign, this one with Cardiff Council's logo in Heath Park. It says: 'Why are you tossing litter around here? - I'm lazy / I don't care about this community / I think other people should pay to clean up after me'. 'Don't be a TOSSER - you brought your rubbish here, please take it home with you'.
