@MartinSLewis @Ryanair 4 months on from confirmation of funds being processed, still I haven’t received a penny. Blaming it on a “payment issue” with the Ryanair system. Escalated it 3x with Ryanair chat.

@easyJet 24hrs later I am almost home…. Very out of pocket. Thanks for replying to my tweet and for the wonderful help desk at Belfast airport

[Rob Castiglione @RobertoCastig]

@easyJet we are stuck in Belfast int… we are being told by staff here to book a flight back in 2 days time (next available)…. In the mean time, will easyJet cover our hotel? Taxi? Food ? Advice here is very vague

[Rob Castiglione @RobertoCastig]

@NHSEngland happy birthday mate. Hope you’ve have a good day.

The BMA has demanded a 35% pay rise for junior doctors.

Here's their current average pay rates at different levels.

I'm pleased unions representing the majority of ambulance workers, nurses and physios have agreed to pause strikes and begin formal talks. 

I want to start these talks ASAP to find a fair deal. 

I call on Unite to end strikes and join other unions at the negotiating table.

‘The blanket silence from ministers on this issue has left us with no choice but to ask members to walk out again.'

CSP members from 56 employers are being called to take strike action on 22 March.

With 5% increase from @thecsp and a 20% rise from @The_HCPC we are now looking at £45pcm to come to work. Its a struggle to see the current value of either in the real world, and no where near a deal that is a fair and equitable pay rise/conditions for NHS staff. Untenable #nhs

[Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) @thecsp]

NHS physiotherapy staff in England are taking part in strike action over pay for the first time in our history.

Physiotherapy staff have been left with no choice but to strike.

Show your support using #CSP4FairPay.

[Rob Castiglione @RobertoCastig]

@askryanair thanks for charging me twice for the same booking 👍🏻

[Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) @thecsp]

A rolling wave of physiotherapy strike action is to be announced in early 2023 unless the NHS pay dispute is settled.

The CSP now has no choice but to use the industrial action mandate secured by our members in England and Wales.

@KMiddletonCSP @thecsp received a bulletin today about rejecting the @The_HCPC fee rise, but what about the CSP fee rise to £421 ?

@daveberry_tweet I explained to a colleague in A&E this am that I was playing #whamageddon2022 … he then immediately put on a Christmas playlist, assured me that Wham was not on the playlist, only for it to be the 2nd song.. have I been whammed or is this foul play?

A lack of flexible work pushes workers - esp. women - out the public sector, out of union rep roles, & limits access to healthcare

CSP's Helen Lewes speaks at #TUC22 on her fortune of working with managers supportive of flexi-work, & why the NHS needs to make this default

[Roger Federer @rogerfederer]

just a quick warmup before the gala 🏓

[Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) @thecsp]

Following members votes on NHS pay, the CSP will now hold an industrial action ballot - for all members who work in the NHS in England and Wales.

The NHS pay award is ‘simply not enough’.

We are recommending a vote for strike action.
