If oil at nearly $100 a barrel still isn’t profitable enough for BP, our energy security cannot be left to multinational corporations. Andy Burnham should bring North Sea oil and gas into public ownership protecting jobs and delivering stable, affordable energy for workers and families

The decision follows a review of BP's operations and is set to end 60 years of production in the region by the oil giant.

🙌 Praise for a TSSA Rep - A Testimonial 🙌

One of our members was facing huge personal challenges in her life, when her son was sexually abused and she needed flexibility from her employer to support him and her family.

Unfortunately, her employer wasn’t as understanding as she’d hoped they would be and she was left feeling alone and suicidal.

Thankfully she turned to her union and sought the support of her TSSA Rep, who provided compassion, assistance and guidance with negotiating flexibility in her role to enable her, her son and family to heal from the ordeal.

Thanks to the actions of this hard working TSSA Rep, our member now feels able to survive, both in the workplace and at home.

Congratulations to our members speaking out on the issues facing them as transport workers at London Labour Conference this weekend.

Our motion calling for fair pay and trade union recognition for management grades at TfL, and for greater investment in rail infrastructure and action to tackle assaults on transport workers, won unanimous support from the conference.

We look forward to working with the Mayor and the Government to ensure it's acted on. 💪
