BREAKING 🚨: More than half of care workers suffer violent attacks on the job 🧑⚕️
They do a tough, physically demanding job. Often for pennies above minimum wage.
Carers deserve better - the Government's fair pay agreements are an important step.
Scrapping care visas will be potentially catastrophic.
Care is utterly reliant on migrant workers - and there's still over 130,000 vacancies.
We are working with the Government to deliver the pay rise care workers deserve.
But this won't arrive soon enough to fill any void.
Our colleagues at @GMBLondonRegion have written to MPs about the expected cuts to the welfare system.
We wholeheartedly agree - the cuts are unpopular, they are unacceptable and they need to be reversed.
Today is International Women’s Day.

https://t.co/ftLCleExBf
These workers support members every day in taking their employers to task but instead of recognising their valuable work, the BMA is refusing to reward their years of service.

The confirmation of Navantia's takeover of Harland & Wolff will give workers - across all four yards - chance to relax.
But without a steady drum beat of work, these yards will continue to struggle.
That is what we fight for. The long-term future of manufacturing.
Hundreds of TAs protested Merton Council's meeting last night.
They're paid an average of £1400 less London Weighting allowance than their teacher colleagues.
A petition of more than 600 signatures was submitted before the meeting - now it's over to them to do the right thing.
On this day 170 years ago Eleanor Marx, a co-founder of our union, was born.
Eleanor was at the forefront of the fight for the 8 hour working day. She fought for justice & equality.
Today we celebrate her achievements and use them to reinvigorate our drive to make change 🙌
