Statutory sick pay in the UK is just £95.85/wk - and 2 million don’t earn enough to qualify.
People can’t afford to self-isolate on that. They need #SickPayForAll that meets the cost of living.
I’ve given the last 4 months of my life to caring primarily for #COVIDー19 patients, risking the lives of myself and my family along with other #Nursing staff and #socialcare workers but school teachers are getting a 3.1% pay rise as an incentive to go back to work.
Hmm okay.
