SUMMARY:International Day against Homophobia\, Biphobia and Transphobia
DESCRIPTION:Unite is proud to recognise International Day against Homophobia\, Biphobia and Transphobia on 17 May. Known as IDAHOBIT for short\, this date was chosen as it commemorates the date of the decision to remove homosexuality from classification as a mental illness by the World Health Organisation in 1990. The main purpose of IDAHOBIT is to raise awareness of ongoing discrimination\, violence and persecution of LGBT+ people across the world. \nResearch by Stonewall\, the national LGBT charity found that one in five LGBT people have experienced a hate crime because of their sexual orientation in the past year and over half of trans people have been subjected to a hate crime due to their gender identity. \nAround a quarter of LGBT people avoid some streets due to safety concerns and 13 per cent have been discriminated against in a bar\, restaurant or club venue. Trans people in particular still experience appalling levels of abuse on social media and are on the receiving end of misinformation and direct attacks from TV and print media. \nThat’s why Unite Equalities continues to work hard to campaign for more inclusive workplaces and safer communities for LGBT+ people across the country. We’re particularly keen for more LGBT+ Unite members to get involved\, contact your regional equalities officer for further information.

SUMMARY:Strike together\, re-ballot together\, win together - RCN in Brighton
DESCRIPTION:Join this very special meeting during the RCN’s congress this year in Brighton. As unions across health and education being important re-ballots\, we are calling this meeting to link together trade unionists across Brighton and Hove. \nGovernment has failed to offer meaningful deals\, with both RCN and NEU members voting to reject in large numbers. Alongside poor offers\, the Government has moved to ban strikes using the courts\, rather than talks. \nDue to the anti union legislation\, both the RCN and NEU have to begin a re-ballot in furthering their campaigns. \nAs the RCN Congress is in the city\, we want to take this opportunity to organise this important meeting to bring together delegates from RCN congress and other trade unionists in the city to discuss how we can Strike together\, Re-ballot together and Win together. \nAll are welcome to join us at the Tudor room\, Old Ship Hotel\, 4 minutes walk from the Brighton centre at 6pm. \nBe a part of this important joint union meeting and continue to support workers taking action. \nConfirmed speakers include members of the RCN\, BMA and others to be announced.
