👉 Encouraging more girls into STEM isn't enough if women are later pushed out by unsustainable working practices.

👉 Addressing gender inequality in the tech industry will require more than encouragement or skills pipelines. It demands structural change.

[Prospect Union @ProspectUnion]

👉 Women make up only 22% of the tech workforce and are even less represented in leadership roles.

👉 Fair working hours, genuine choice and strong worker voice are essential if the tech sector is to attract and retain diverse talent.

Reform’s plans to cut 68,000 civil service jobs would damage our vital public services.

"This is just the latest desperate attempt to generate headlines by treating public servants as a political punchbag" - @mikeclancy1

🚨 Prospect secures improved pay deal at the British Library.

After rejecting two offers and preparing for industrial action, members have voted to accept a 3.8% pay rise plus structural changes to improve progression for lowest grades.

[Prospect Union @ProspectUnion]

The gender pension gap in the civil service stands at 45%, higher than the UK average of 36.5%. This is unacceptable.

That's why we have written to Cabinet Office Minister Anna Turley to urge the government to take urgent action to address the gap. https://t.co/oDWZvJIoaR

DEFRA's plan confirms what we already know: there’s no trade-off between growth and nature 🌍

After years of underfunding, regulators need the resources to protect our environment and support economic growth.

[Defra UK @DefraGovUK]

This Budget was always going to be tough given the economic climate.

Working people understand strong public services need funding - but as they’re asked to contribute more, they’ll rightly expect real change in return.

Regulators are builders, not blockers.

We have written to the Chancellor calling for proper funding for environmental regulators in the Budget. Under resourcing, not regulation, is slowing planning approvals.

[PoliticsHome @politicshome]

Unions and environmental groups have urged the government to boost funding for key environmental regulators in the Budget, warning that chronic under-resourcing, not nature protections, is driving delays in the planning system

🚨 Prospect warns that Reform's plan to shift public sector pensions from defined benefit to defined contribution for new entrants could end up costing taxpayers tens of billions rather than saving money.
