Read the latest issue of our members’ magazine PCS People, which focuses on the general election.

There is also a special supplement on our annual delegate conference, including details of the debates and motions passed, fringe events, the organising awards and a summary of the financial report.

Our lead story on the general election explains the importance of voting in the general election on 4 July and links to our nine demands for an incoming government, issues tor you to consider when casting your vote.

Read the latest columns by our general secretary Fran Heathcote and our president Martin Cavanagh – both stress the importance of voting in the general election and how PCS will put maximum pressure on the incoming government to achieve our demands.

There is also an update on our national campaign and an article on how we are continuing to work with other unions to campaign on pensions justice.

There is a section on international solidarity and why it is a trade union issue, and an article on Ukraine: the war through a trade union lens.

There are lots of other interesting and informative articles inside, including:

• A  mythbuster and frequently asked questions about the Four-Day Week campaign.
• A section on legal wins including how PCS’s solicitors were able to win compensation for the widow of a jobcentre member killed in a car crash.
• A  Me and My Job interview with Beth Winter-Page, a member of an all-female craftsperson team in Forestry England.
