We want to offer our total solidarity with @unitetheunion.bsky.social members at Alexander Dennis who have been striking this month for better pay.

Solidarity With The Workers At Alexander Dennis, Scarborough

Alexander Dennis recently signed a contract for over 200 buses, worth at least £57 million. This £57 million is generated from the skills and labour of the workers, not bosses. Those on the shop floor will, of course, not see their fair share of this revenue. Workers at Alexander Dennis now have a fifth less spending power than they did 5 years ago. This is no accident.
We are all, as workers, united through our experiences of our labour being devalued & exploited by bosses. The IWGB is far too familiar with leadership lining their own pockets with the stolen wages of their employees. In response to strike action, bosses have made a paltry offer amounting to a real terms pay cut over the next two years. This is a further squeeze on those of us who are already struggling with the everyday reality of a cost of living crisis.

They do not respect the power that we wield.
It's time we remind them that workers united will never be defeated.

Victory to the workers
Total solidarity with those on strike

Today marks the beginning of our trial against Rockstar to hold them accountable for firing workers who were trying to unionise. In order for us to see this through to the end, we need your support. Please donate to and share our fundraiser for the Rockstar 31:

Our campaign for a union at Rockstar continues! Today, we've filed for recognition with @rockstargames.com, asking Rockstar to meet with their workers to agree a deal for good working conditions, fairness and a say at work. We await Rockstar's response.

"After months of fighting to have our voices heard, this is a moment to celebrate. The judgment shows that even against a company with Rockstar’s resources, workers can stand together and demand accountability." We won't back down in our fight for justice. Every game worker deserves a union. ✊
