Spotted around the Rooted Finance office 👀

Dozens of stickers calling for reinstatement of 83% of Rooted Finance workers who were dismissed days after successfully balloting to strike.

Solidarity with Rooted Finance Workers Union supporters who are taking matters into their own hands!

CEO of Debt Advice Charity Rooted Finance Muna Yassin will happily meet with bailiffs, but was so against discussions with her own workforce that she sacked 83% of them after they tried to unionise.

More shameful behaviour from charity bosses.

You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you...

The government is attempting to ban strikes in the fire service. This April it's time to vote YES to having a political voice.

Support for @tatasteeluk workers from Clydebank TUC - an area that has lived through the destruction of vital heavy industries.

For decades, our politicians handed our #steel to overseas corporations, undermining our economy and national security. They have failed us all.

While this is a welcome step in the right direction, Unite the union: join a union won’t stop here. Our members deserve better pay and conditions and GLL is in a position to improve its offers across the board.

Unite is winning more than we’ve ever won before. We’ve seen £430m put back into members’ pockets through disputes alone in the last two years. This is just the tip of the iceberg as Unite remains fully focused on the fight for better #JobsPayConditions

You say the word renationalisation and everyone thinks it's a radical idea. It's not a radical idea to own our own energy, to own our own gas, to own our own water.

Unite has always said that there are alternatives to these job cuts and that the UK could be the green steel capital of Europe – growing jobs.

It is now vital that Tata and the government listen and protect steel production in Britain.

Support for Tata Steel UK #steel workers from advice workers in Unite West Yorks & Humber NE/403/15 ✊

Tata pleads poverty but sits on reserves of £1.6 billion.

Meanwhile their plans to decimate our #steel industry would force thousands of UK families into *genuine* poverty.

I'm a debt and benefits caseworker facing redundancy. My vocation requires extensive knowledge and ability to interpret complex law. Cases are more complex and desperate, but pay is still an issue. I just saw a job in a call centre for more than some MA jobs are offering!

.Rooted Finance has gone running to known man of the people, Ëlon Müsk, to shut down our campaign

A bit late! The demonstration already happened!

Lots of people in the area came to speak with us to see what it was all about and were shocked to hear about management’s behaviour

Solidarity with all debt advisers faced with high and demanding workloads, often with poor pay and conditions. We support the unionisation of workplaces and are extremely concerned by what we are hearing about this dispute Rooted Finance bit.ly/3Vo9M2p

Welcome news - pity the LG & SC Ombudsman not involved given local authority debt collection practices and a lack of ‘supportive language’

Letters from bailiffs often threatening (falsely) to ‘remove goods’ and ‘recommend prison’

Erik Porter is the Chair of Rooted Finance who have fired 67% of their frontline staff after trying to unionise.

Today we held a demo outside his employer Wagestream, asking Erik to do the right thing and reinstate the workers.

It’s time to step in for the good of the charity.

Notice to friends, supporters and all good people. Support these workers while they campaign for their jobs by contributing to their hardship fund: actionnetwork.org/fundraising/su…

The US, Germany, France and the Netherlands invest in the future of their critical industries. In the UK, stuck in the trap of free market ideology, we watch the last of our infrastructure crumble and with it, our industrial security and self-sufficiency.
