I presented my operational definition of #labourexploitation (https://t.co/eaJcPT68qS) & Acciari & I's work on care workers'conditions & health @UCL_GD panel.

You can tell by the HUGE GRIN that I am proud to rep my union @UVWunion and speak alongside Bella, the amazing care worker, who with her colleague’s took strike action in the harshest of conditions during a global pandemic.
