Angela Rayner suspended from Unite Union

Must be horrendous in this heat.

I believe Bham has 3 wheelie bins...the only ones being emptied R household waste....no recycling since?end ofFeb..and no garden waste altho paid for...not being picked up...
It must be terrible for Brummies and with the heat..an awful stench and a health risk to all...this has now been ongoing for ?6months over inequality pay...hope this is resolved soon ...not sure if London residents would put up with this ...

I’ve no persuasion as who is right on this really Casdon
Not really.
But it’s an interesting conundrum. Best get the popcorn out …

Now we see who is in charge.
Clue.
It's not Labour.

Am I right in thinking that Birmingham still doesn’t have wheelie bins? Or have things changed since I last visited the place.

Birmingham Council haven’t run things well for a long time and in this dispute I think the workers are absolutely right.

The cynic in me says that she's been deliberately suspended from Unite so as to put some distance between her and them. Then along comes Starmer's position and hey ho, we have a new PM with whom relations with Unite will suddenly be all good again. Just a thought ...

Angela Rayner is a government minister now. She can’t run with the hare and the hounds. Birmingham's bin dispute is months old. The voters want their bins emptied.

UNITE may swap allegiance to Corbyn’s new party? 😁

Yes, but who do you think is right FGT2? Is this a line that Angela Rayner should be holding, or not?

I’m interested to hear who people think is right in this dispute? Is it reasonable for Birmingham City Council to meet the workers demands?

Interesting. I wonder where Labour’s relationship with the trade unions is going.
