Steve Gillan (General Secretary). And Joe Simpson (NEC). The Labour party MPs were good speaker...

A VOICE from the LANDINGS. ROSSI's 'unofficial' GARTH/POA blog. Thursday, 15 May 2014. 2014 POA Annual CONFERENCE, SOUTHPORT. The 2014 POA (Prison Officers Association). Annual Conference was again held at the Floral hall in Southport, unfortunately many of us this time had to use our own annual leave to attend, but restrictions on facility time made little difference to everyones enthusiasm and this year was an excellent Conference with some important decisions being debated and voted on. The business o...

A VOICE from the LANDINGS. ROSSI's 'unofficial' GARTH/POA blog. Thursday, 25 October 2012. I intended to start this blog post off with some photos of Garth members at the TUC rally in London on the 20. The monthly POA subscription seems a bargain. Just for the record that’s not me trying to canvass people into the union, just a statement of how surprised I was at some of the things mentioned at the meeting! I would like to welcome Stuart Smith. Onto the Committee at Garth and I look forward to working wi...

This is my ‘unofficial’ POA Garth blog which has been going for over three years now and is basically my own view of what’s happening on the shop floor at Garth and nationally with the POA. The past positive relationships that staff had wit...

There seemed to be detail meeting after detail meeting and every manager and his dog appeared to be getting involved with the Christmas details, ordering staff to do this and do that. We stepped in and (with the advice of Chris Donovan our area NEC rep who happened to be visiting). Moving forward into the New Year, lets hope it’s a good one…………………! 8220;One fine Day in the middle of the Night,.

A VOICE from the LANDINGS. ROSSI's 'unofficial' GARTH/POA blog. Monday, 19 August 2013. ADDRESSING THE BRANCH AS CHAIRMAN. I wrote a similar blog post nearly a year ago when I was appointed Branch Secretary so it only seems appropriate to also pen/type another now that I am Branch Chairman at Garth. Unfortunately Phil picked his moment to take VEDS, just before Benchmarking hits Garth (nice one mate! I am certain if we follow those objectives we will be successful. Unfortunately in this day and age some ...

A VOICE from the LANDINGS. ROSSI's 'unofficial' GARTH/POA blog. Saturday, 18 May 2013. POA annual CONFERENCE, SOUTHPORT 2013. Last week was the POA annual Conference held in the Floral hall in Southport. It was my first annual conference and on a personal level proved somewhat of an eye-opener. Our stance was that we felt the whole affair shouldn't have reached this level to start with. Phil (our branch Chairman). When the National Chairman stood up to do his opening speech, the Northwest branches stood ...
