We’re sorry to hear that Doddie Weir OBE has died.
Since sharing his MND diagnosis in 2017, Doddie became an inspiration to many, raising awareness and campaigning tirelessly on behalf of those with MND.
Our thoughts are with Doddie’s wife Kathy, his 3 sons, family and friends.
“Knowing that when they call out Category 1 “can anyone go?”, no ones going. It’s heartbreaking, genuinely heartbreaking.
“Everyone we don’t get to, is someone we didn’t help in time.”
Kelvin, an NHS paramedic with @unitetheunion, explains why he's balloting for strike action.
Pillar & Post is definitely David Seaman and Frankie Poultney. Strength of him, size of them both, met stars together, ice dancing lifts and keep it in the family (married now). #MaskedDancerUK
OMG! Listening to the so-called coverage of the Hull v Leeds game on @RadioHumberside. This is the most biased commentary I have ever listened to! I appreciate they are from Hull but accusing players of cheating, harping on about forward passes and double movements - not cool 😡!
How is this a pay rise? When is a pay rise not a pay rise? When you end up earning considerably less than you did before the pay rise. @unitetheunion health rep Debbie Wilkinson @tally299 explains. #NHSPay#NHSPay15 https://t.co/yfud2332qy
Our EC chair Tony Woodhouse opens #UPC2021 by paying tribute to our friends and colleagues who have so tragically lost their lives to the pandemic and to all our members who have worked tirelessly on the Covid frontline keeping us and our communities safe and working.
Concerning to see reports of support for further privatisation in the NHS from Keir Starmer and @UKLabour#Lab21 Unite will lead a campaign against the Health and Care Bill to ensure our members and our NHS is protected from cronyism, cuts and deskilling #ScrapNHSBill
The Government said yesterday that NHS staff deserve 'immense thanks'. Today they want the Pay Review Body to give NHS staff a miserly 1% pay rise. Join our campaign to say they deserve more 👉https://t.co/4AkeM0p488

Our brilliant NHS workers are getting us through this crisis. They are caring for our loved ones. And they are leading the vaccination effort.
This is an insulting way to reward their service.
All of our key workers deserve a decent pay rise.
