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.
Dear colleague,
Defend RMT members' right to stay - Demonstration - Wednesday 17th September 8am
On Wednesday, RMT is demonstrating outside the Home Office against recent changes introduced by the Government to the eligibility rules for the Skilled Worker Visa.
These unfair and arbitrary changes, introduced with virtually no notice mean that a number of RMT members, including some employed by TfL are now at risk of deportation when their current visas expire, which for some members is in a matter of months.
