Speaking as someone who was an NHS doctor during Jeremy Hunt’s entire tenure as Health Secretary, I have absolutely no interest in what he has to say about the NHS. And I don’t understand why the Guardian is, either: https://t.co/Jwhi9dH3ha
The circus has begun. You have little to no idea who this WEF puppet Andy Burnham is. A left wing tax and spend socialist who is a Manchurian candidate operating on behalf of the corporatists and oligarchs that control this country. A man sent to destroy what’s left of this once great country. A man who will surround himself with other puppets dedicated to that same ideal. The UK needs an election not a coronation. If that does not work then certainly a revolution.
I fought sexual harassment against my staff in Lady at Lord John fashion store in the 80’s. I was sacked. Even then when we didn’t even have a word for it , the movement recognised that workers shouldn’t have to tolerate this threat to their health and wellbeing . Activists and my union fought for me to get my job back and have sexual harassment recognised. It is as bad, if not worse today, than it was then. It must become a reportable incident as is every other threat to worker’s health.
Sexual harassment in the workplace can no longer be tolerated. It can happen to anyone . It’s insidious it , it’s an attack on our class. It’s a health and safety issue. It’s only by joining forces that we can put an end to it.
Join us 11am this FRIDAY JUNE 26th Liverpool the offices of the HEALTH AND SAFETY EXECUTIVE MERTON ROAD BOOTLE . L20 7HS
Please share this - We call on workers and trade unionists to protest outside Health and Safety Executive over failure to recognise workplace sexual harassment as a reportable safety incident
Workers, trade unionists and campaigners will gather outside the Health and Safety Executive’s Liverpool offices on Friday 26 June to demand that workplace sexual harassment is recognised as a reportable incident under RIDDOR (Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations).
The protest, organised by the End Not Defend campaign, comes as evidence continues to show that millions of workers experience sexual harassment at work each year, yet incidents remain largely invisible within the workplace health and safety system because they are not reported.
While employers are required to report serious physical injuries and dangerous workplace incidents, there is no equivalent requirement to report sexual harassment, despite the significant impact it can have on workers’ mental and physical health.
Ian Hodson, National President of the Bakers, Food and Allied Workers Union (BFAWU), said
“Workers can suffer trauma, anxiety, depression, loss of confidence and be driven out of work altogether because of sexual harassment. Yet the system largely treats these experiences as invisible.
A broken arm at work is reportable. A dangerous occurrence is reportable. Sexual harassment that damages a worker’s health and wellbeing is not.
That cannot be right.
If sexual harassment is a workplace hazard – and it is – then employers should be required to report it. What gets measured gets managed. If it’s not reported, it’s not regulated.”
The End Not Defend campaign is calling for -
* Sexual harassment to be recognised as a workplace health and safety issue.
* Sexual harassment incidents to be reportable under RIDDOR.
* Greater transparency and accountability from employers.
* Stronger prevention measures to stop harassment before it happens.

As Keir Starmer leaves office spouting lies, and has a dig at a man who more integrity in his little finger than Starmer does in his entire body, I want to retweet this from @dodgson_sally spot on
Hazarika says Keir deserves huge credit for taking Lab from its worst defeat to one of its greatest victories
Fewer people voted Lab in 2024 than 2019
Hazarika says it all went wrong because there was no proper plan for govt. So why didnt the media warn us between 2020 & 2024?
If you have a spare 3 mins and 45 secs today, watch this fantastic grilling by Sally Nugent on BBC Breakfast.
The very first time I've seen Farage questioned properly about his £5M bung, and it's fair to say, he totally fluffed it.
There are points when you can see Farage tremble and even accuse the BBC of putting him in danger. 🤦♂️
It was for security. It was for cars. Nobody cares. It's no one's business. He won't tell us. DANGER!
At one point, he let slip that the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may 'disagree' with him on the rules around donations.
He knows he's going to be found guilty on this one. He's in trouble, and his face gave it away gloriously.
Top hats off to Sally Nugent. Stellar work. 👏
Keir Starmer resigned, calling the Labour Party he inherited “morally bankrupt”.
He inherited a Jeremy Corbyn party with half a million members, 40% of the vote in 2017 and the most popular manifesto in a generation.
He won 33.7% in 2024. The lowest winning vote share on record
Whoever resigns-whatever statements are made by career politicians-the spiralling collapse of our society remains unchanged. Starmer/Burnham/Farage/Lowe etc, ad nauseam are ALL exactly the same.
Parasites & chancers run the rotten & collapsing system-no tinkering will save us.
🚨23 days of mass protest in Albania with only yesterday over one million on the streets.
🔴Albanians are demanding Edi Rama’s resignation for selling Albanian land and Sazan Island to Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump for a billionaire resort.
It’s an island historically associated with control of the Adriatic Sea, all the main regional powers have occupied it over the centuries, most recently the Warsaw Pact before Albania left. If allowed to go through there will be military installations and hardware in situ in no time.
🔴Not a word by our media.
