Redhead (though silver threads amongst the gold these days), socialist, feminist, mother, grandmother, dog lover, supporter of NHS, big fan of Jeremy Corbyn.
It's beyond shameful that Rishi Sunak thinks threatening to sack nurses and teachers is the answer.
We’ll oppose this divisive attack on working people.

Tomorrow @RishiSunak will launch an all out attack on the right to strike.
RT if you stand with every single union that chooses to make a stand and fight on behalf of their members.
It’s time to pick a side.
I can’t help thinking - all this cash being given to private healthcare companies to “help” the NHS - wouldn’t it much, much more efficient to give it directly to… the NHS. Where there are no shareholders taking profits?
@JohnWhelo@doctor_oxford Oh, and that has worked so well in dentistry, John....can you hear the screams of those who cannot afford to attend a dentist?
Blind woman says: "If there are no staff at ticket offices and no guards on trains, how am I supposed to travel safely?"
The story most of the media won't tell you is that @RMTunion members are fighting to protect services as well as their own jobs. https://t.co/v4LuMEBHX7
This is a very special genre. MP of a party who voted for the privatisation of Royal Mail complaining about the impact of the privatisation of Royal Mail.
Craig, management told our members to leave these letters and concentrate on parcels. That’s the Royal Mail you created.
You and decent don’t belong in the same sentence, Kelvin.
Our union and members won’t be taking lectures on what’s best for working people from someone like you.
Every single day we are proud to have banned The S*n from CWU premises. Thanks for reminding us why we did.

Nurses work 12hr shifts; sell their days off; use food banks; pay £1300 a year to park. And 40,000 have left their jobs in a year.
Tory MPs sit for 150 days; get subsidised food; claim travel & energy on expenses; get free parking & £2,200 pay rises.
Back the nurses please.
We are now in the same position as the 70's; a stand alone nation with strikes, an energy crisis and very high levels of debt. The answer then was we needed to be part of something bigger and better - the EU (EEC). We grew to be very sucessful in it. What should we do now?
Due to Royal Mail Groups attempts to destroy your local postal workers and the service they provide, today will be the final day of post before Christmas.
We hope you understand what it has taken for postal workers to make this call.
They need your support.

This is so desperately sad. As a mother of a daughter; as an educated woman who works in a university, seeing how British universities work as engines of knowledge; as a human - this is so wrong.
@theAliceRoberts Should it not make us angry, rather than sad? Desperately, desperately wrong. I have two grown daughters, three degrees between them - how angry would I have been, if someone had stood in their way? How much poorer would the world be without their impact upon it?
Tonight, I’ve come close to tears whilst apologising to patients for the standards of care we are able to provide.
In my 22 years of being an A&E Dr, I’ve never seen things so bad. It’s the same everywhere.
I just hope patients know fault lies with politicians not NHS staff.
@gavinesler I started in the NHS in 1986 - two weeks later a private cleaning company took over. The chair of this company was Denis Thatcher. Parking pharmacy food all private. They've been privatising it now running it into the ground for years.
