If a teacher did that they would be suspended and in front of the TRA panel.. you can't show ANY political bias. Were they not teachers striking outside their school the other day? Quote

But the way some people ramble on you’d think it was a widespread issue. Folk just love to stir shit up. Quote

I remember the teacher on educating Manchester from Harrop fold getting some shit for slagging Trump off and going on a rant about him.

That's because unions usually help organise the marches, and the banners are there to help members identify which union is where. Part of organisers role that has been there for 150 years. Quote

We've just done a project with The Co-op they have one of the original banners in their archives. Quote

Banners there even though a lot of the speeches were about calling on the government for change. A party can support a movement that pushes their own party when in power. Again, i go back to can we please start teaching the basic of politics at school. Quote

Unions are there to protect their members' interests in their working environment. Bugger all to do with religious based strife many hundreds of miles away. How does that work for any of their members that don't support Palestine? An overstepping of their remit. If a union member has wants to demonstrate on such an issue then do so, but not under a banner unrelated to the matter. Quote

If a union member has wants to demonstrate on such an issue then do so, but not under a banner unrelated to the matter. For the most part, it is within their remit. It goes beyond collective bargaining, representation, workers rights, striking and calling each other comrade. Members are not obliged to go, nor support every action; but traditionally trade unions are aligned to the left, and will protest against the far right. The rise of the far right- building a trade union response | TUC You'll also find members can pretty much support any party they want; though being an activist for one political party can lead to expulsion. I have no interest in arguing the rights and wrongs of the matter- I am just explaining why banners are present. Quote
frank_spencer Posted May 14 Posted May 14 If they wanted Union types can gather for Tommy's march on Saturday as well as the counter protest just have to find someone to organise it. Quote
