Andrea Egan: “Under my leadership UNISON’s solidarity with Ukrainian unions and workers will continue and grow” We were very pleased that the speakers at the 4 March Ukraine Solidarity Campaign rally at the UK Parliament for the fourth anniversary of the full-scale invasion included Andrea Egan, new General Secretary of public-service union UNISON. The UK's largest trade union, with around 1.3 million members, UNISON affiliated to USC in 2024. It was great to have its new leader, already such a powerful presence in the labour movement, speaking vocally in solidarity with Ukraine.

Another necessary update on the vast climate damage caused by Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine from attacks on energy infrastructure to warfare emissions and landscape fires.

This is what fossil-fuelled imperialism looks like. Climate justice means standing with Ukraine.

“For a just and lasting peace, solidarity with Ukraine’s resistance” – French unions’ call to demonstrate on 21 February Seven French union federations have issued this statement supporting the protest in Paris on 21 February. For the statement issued on 21 January by eight federations, see here. For the statement as issued in French, as a PDF, see below. For a just and lasting peace, solidarity with Ukraine that resists! It is urgent to stop the war! On February 24, 2022, Vladimir Putin launched the large-scale invasion of Ukraine, betting on a quick victory: marching on Kiev, quickly reaching the borders of the European Union, and paving the way for the realization of an imperialist project of controlling Eastern Europe and dismantling Europe.
