Reopening coal mines isn’t a serious plan - it’s a political stunt. This proposal comes from someone who admired Margaret Thatcher - the very Prime Minister who closed the pits - and who counts Donald Trump among his closest allies.

Privileged to attend Harvard Law School, completing the TUC Leading Change Programme. Jack Trumpbour, Research Director Center for Labor and a Just Economy | HLS was epic.

The US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, without UN approval have raised global alarm. Escalation helps no one. It’s time for diplomacy to take the lead again. We need dialogue, not destruction. All parties involved must prioritise getting back to the negotiating table.

The Tories left behind a messy, toxic economic and social legacy. Everyone wants to see a benefits system that helps people live with dignity and supports them into good, secure jobs. TUC Cymru continues to work with Welsh Government to make the case to UK govt on the need to

It's unacceptable that public money meant for adult social care ends up as profit for distant investors. Older people deserve dignity, not commodification. Come join in today for a vital discussion on who really benefits and why it must change! St George's hotel, Llandudno,

Soaring energy bills are causing untold suffering for low-income households & workers across the UK. Publicly owned, clean powered energy retail companies could help deliver fairer bills for households, accelerate the rollout of household retrofits and reduce energy use.
