The Fire Brigades Union (FBU) has called on the new Labour government to end years of "misery" under the Tories and deliver on their promises to working people following the party's win in the general election.
Matt Wrack, Fire Brigades Union general secretary said:
“Today marks the end of an era of destruction and misery under Tory rule. For the past fourteen years, we have endured endless attacks on our public services, pay, rights and freedoms.
“Keir Starmer has inherited a broken Britain, with millions struggling to pay the bills. To fix it, the new Labour government must turn its back on austerity and authoritarianism.
“Trade unions will be holding all new ministers to every commitment made in the New Deal for Working People. To improve people’s lives, we need to shift the balance of power away from profiteers and back to workers.
“This must start with reversing the Tory’s vicious anti trade union laws.”
