To people who say βa lot of water has gone under the bridgeβ when it comes to traumatic experiences, I say this may be true, but the bridge remains. #PTSD
Just finished night 2 of 3. Frankly traumatised by the state of the NHS. Short staffed. No beds. Patients waiting on hold to 999. Handing over a 10 hour wait in majors this morning. The NHS is being wilfully failed and people are dying because of this.
The essence of trade unionism is social uplift. It has helped to secure:
β’ A minimum wage
β’ Annual leave
β’ Sick pay
β’ A two day weekend
β’ Maternity leave
β’ Protection from workplace discrimination
β’ Health and safety in the workplace
β’ Workplace pensions
Join a union.
Allowing agency staff to replace striking workers would undermine the right to strike and create genuine safety risks for the public and workers. Sign the petition! megaphone.org.uk/petitions/d⦠via @megaphoneuk
