We would of welcomed the minister but unfortunately now we will wait and expose the front by the @scotgov with regard to listening to workers @RozFoyer @ScottishTUC a government of the wrong #YES at this rate it will be just another wasted transition
Disappointing that when @RichardLochhead MSP who is the just transition & fair work minister has an opportunity to engage and address @RMTunion offshore workers he goes and chooses not to . @NicolaSturgeon if your taking this seriously then you need to start playing .

🤝Thank you to #STUC22 for your solidarity with sacked P&O workers. We're calling on trade unionists and the public to join our blockade of Cairnryan this Friday. Buses will be leaving our Hope Street office at 12 noon. Nothing in, and nothing out!
A small banner to reflect a big big issue for UK Seafarers , I'm sure @POferriesupdate will be keen to ensure the 5 buses of @RMTunion and French union activists boarding their boats this weekend won't have to put up with powercuts . @dazprocter @GazJacksonrmt @GavNewlandsSNP
RMT Dover office just got a new banner!

. @POferries where are my personal belongings? You kicked us off the ships on 17th March. You keep placating us with unacceptable excuses nearly 6 weeks on. I’m still waiting for my personal belongings as are very many of my colleagues. Where are they? – at Milnerton, South Africa
So further the recent actions of @POferriesupdate the European causeway is now drifting with no power on board terrible that the low cost ambitions now put lives potentially at risk @RMTunion @RMT_Scotland @RozFoyer @BBCScotlandNews @SkyNewsBreak @GavNewlandsSNP @AndyMcDonaldMP

Perhaps @rodstewart could update his famous classic and launch a @POferries version titled " we aren't sailing " seems it would be a fitting tribute . Coming up next The @pussycatdolls sing "Don't you wish your MD was as clever as me " make it happen Rod @RMTunion

So seems there's a history or illegal ( or was it elicit back ) of @POferries doing bad things . Now #HEBBLEWAITE is under the radar of @insolvencygovuk only a matter of time before the nefarious history is added to . @RMTunion @RMT_Scotland @RMTLondon @alexgordon4me @dazprocter
Heard Gordon Martin today @RMTunion call P&O ‘Capitalist Bandits’👌hadn’t realised until tonight, the Chairman in the 1840s had a castle built on Lewis, clearing more than 500 families of their land & shipped them to Canada & P&O was a major opium smuggler through 19th Century!

📢⛴️#PandO demo this morning at 11 at Clyde Marine. Very sorry not to be able to join you this morning, but I'm en route to London and will be trying to force the UK Gov't to tell the sacked workers what they plan to do ASAP. #SaveOurSeafarers
It's time to target P&O’s supply chain and any company complicit in P&O’s scandalous decision to dismiss all UK seafarers. Demonstration this Mon, 28 March at 11am at Clyde Marine Recruitment in Govan. Bring your flags and banners, all welcome! #BoycottPandO #SaveOurSeafarers
Damming report from the Transport & Business select committees over the sacking of 800 seafarers @RMTunion @nautilusint @POferries @DPWorldUK @KarlTurnerMP @dazprocter

David Linden SNP MP
To use the term correctly to start an admittance of breaking the law isn't that irony or best case an oxymoron ? @RMTunion @RMT_Scotland @POferries @GavNewlandsSNP @DavidLinden @IanLaveryMP @IanMearnsMP @dover_shipping @GazJacksonrmt
Today, we have written to the Secretary of State for Transport in response to his latest letter.

Even @grantshapps realises #HEBBLEWAITE isn't fit for office and now the workers ready a campaign to have him struck off as a director @DPWorldUK and @POferries this is turning out to be the PR exercise from HELL ! @bbcsoutheast @BBCScotlandNews @ScottishTUC @RMT_Scotland

Hearing after the Oscar winning performance by #HEBBLEWAITE at the @CommonsTrans some @RMT_Scotland and @RMTunion members are now considering civil proceedings against him via crowdfunding to have him struck off at all his companies he's a director at .
Watch: RMT Regional Organiser Gordon Martin on today's demonstration against @POferries at Cairnryan. We are appealing to freight users and the travelling public to boycott P&O. Because if it's P&O workers today, it could be your job next.

A coach will be leaving our Glasgow office for Cairnryan at 10.00am. Email [email protected] to reserve a seat, priority will be given to RMT members.
We call upon everyone associated with this branch to join our colleagues on this march . The future of unions depends on it
NEW: The RMT have called a demonstration outside the P&O Terminal at Cairnryan on Wednesday 23rd March at 12 noon. We encourage the whole of the trade union movement to join our campaign and fight back against the anti-trade union oligarchs of @POferries and @DPWorldUAE.

What @POferries did yesterday was Employment Genocide at the behest of @DPWorldUK I'd even go as far as saying a cleansing of a workforce . So good to see the response of @RMTunion and the wider movement today . It's only just the beginning of a continuous fight and we are ready.
