Transport union RMT, expressed solidarity with Mayor Sadiq Khan after he was one of several people targeted by a violent Neo-Nazi terrorist.

Alfie Coleman was 19 when he was apprehended in an MI5 sting while attempting to purchase a Makarov semi-automatic pistol, five magazines and 200 rounds of ammunition, using £3,500 he had saved from a part-time supermarket job.

“The organised working class and trade union movement always opposes division and hatred.”

RMT demo against unfair work visa changes

Dear colleague,

Your Union is continuing its campaign against the Government's recent unfair and arbitrary changes to the Skilled Worker Visa rules which are impacting a number of RMT members, putting them at risk of deportation when their current visas expire, which for some is in a matter of weeks or months.

Following the demonstration outside the Home Office last month, we are now taking our campaign directly to Parliament and holding a demonstration on Wednesday 15th October at 1pm outside Parliament at Old Palace Yard, SW1P 3JY.

CONFRONT THE FAR RIGHT WITH WORKING-CLASS POLITICS

This branch notes with alarm the ongoing upsurge in far-right street activity, particularly targeting refugees, immigrants, Muslims, and trans people.

The politics of this upsurge are aimed at dividing the working class.

Mick Lynch Talks At Demo

Dear Colleague,

UPDATE: FAR-RIGHT VIOLENCE

Further to my earlier circular today (NP/196/24) we have become aware that there could be further demonstrations planned by far-right groups aimed at mosques and refugee centres in the coming week.

We are therefore asking members where possible to be in contact with their local mosques, refugee centres and solidarity groups to offer our union's solidarity and support on the ground at a time when they face severe threats and intimidation.
