Brighton and Hove strike called off

Binmen at Brighton and Hove City Council have called off their strike, following a meeting with council officers last night.

Members of the GMB trade union called off their industrial action following a new offer from the council.

The council workers had been on strike in the city since the weekend.

A statement issued by the council said: ‘An agreement has been reached on a set of service redesign proposals that meet our criteria.

‘The council is about half way through the consultation on an allowances system for staff across the council which is fair, consistent and affordable and to this end we are continuing to talk to both our unions.

‘Due to the scale of the disruption it will take some time to clear the backlog. We would ask that residents bear with us.’

Will devolution deepen the UK's social divide?

As the UK Government advances its devolution agenda, shifting power from Westminster to new regional authorities, it’s fair to ask what it means for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), says Gita Singham-Willis, Strategic Engagement Director at Transform UK.
