The Draft Anti-Poverty Strategy needs to be binned. It's more harmful to have a plan that does not address poverty than no plan at all.
We do not say that lightly.
I've signed the public open letter calling on the NI Executive to drop the harmful Anti-Poverty Strategy today - can you add your name too? https://t.co/w1WbLWEude via @actnowni
We need to see the law changed, so that employers and workers know when action must be taken to keep workers cooler and safer. Add your name. https://t.co/AtQMpBDpZD via @megaphoneuk
