France: "We are increasing the retirement age by two years"
The French: "We will drop kick the eiffel tower into the fucking moon if you do"
Britain: "We've made it easier for old rich people to stay rich and if you're poor you can never retire"
Brits: "oh crumbs oh bother"
@jessicamordenmp at this point why even bother having a Labour - if your goal is to make the electorate feel sick to their stomach because the country is run buy a gang of emotionless automatons we already have the Tories for that. Labour has no niche to fill.
The results of the world’s largest trial of a 4-day week (with no loss of pay) are out:
▪️ No drop in revenue
▪️ 65% fewer sick days
▪️ 71% less burnout
▪️ 92% of companies decide to keep the policy after the trial
The conclusion is clear: we need a shorter working week.
I am pleased to see that momentum for a 4-day week continues to grow.
The evidence is clear: a reduction in hours boosts productivity & improves wellbeing.
As we said in our 2019 manifesto, "time off to rest, relax and be with family is essential to a happy & fulfilling life."
People aren't waiting 40 hours for an ambulance because of a one-day strike by paramedics. They're waiting 40 hours for an ambulance because the Tories running down the NHS, week in, week out.
