A proper pay rise
The right banding
A shorter working week

That’s what UNISON members want and it’s what NHS staff deserve.

Matt has summed up the #RNOH ethos well and highlighted the contribution of all staff in making a difficult experience as supportive as possible. #OneTeam

[Gemma Jones @gem_can]

25m30 in is 5 mins essential listening for @RNOHnhs staff to hear @mattforde's perspective and take pride in what we're part of - the bigger picture we can lose sight of focussing on our job and our workload. Whole convo from 16mins in.

Many #NHS healthcare support staff are doing important clinical duties above their pay grade.

But UNISON’s re-banding and back pay campaigns are putting an end to years of bosses exploiting the goodwill of low paid NHS workers.

Days after Pakistan started trying to deport 1.7 million Afghans, many of whom have lived there for decades, Iran now says it wants to expel all 5 million of its Afghans. The world’s most refugee-filled countries are on the verge of executing the world’s largest ethnic cleansing

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how Britain is run these days.
