So lots to be proud of, as our members won a better deal by organising, recruiting and not accepting the first offer.

Its worth sticking it out for a better deal.

For those who are starting in this campaign, ask about "Clawback" and if your trust plans to apply it.

Thank you!
It was a lot of work, but worth it.
The members won a deal where there were no deductions for overtime they'd earned at a bigger rate while they were B2's. Something which has been applied at other hospitals, significantly reducing their backpay.

Homerton NHS Trust health workers win pay deal Workers at Homerton NHS Trust have won a pay increase and back pay deal.

Homerton NHS Trust health workers win pay deal employeebenefits.co.uk/pay-strategy...

The deal, backed by UNISON, has secured hundreds of clinical support workers a β€œsubstantial” pay rise. The workers will also receive more than three year’s back pay.

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights condemned the proscription of Palestine Action as β€œdisproportionate and unnecessary”, warning it risks creating β€œa further chilling effect” on protest and dissent.

A full judicial review has now been granted and if successful, the ban will be overturned.

The 2025 UNISON General Secretary election has now begun. I am standing to be our union's first ever lay member General Secretary.

If elected as General Secretary I will fight for higher pay for all of us and I will only take the wage of a social worker. Support my campaign: andrea4gs.org.uk

David Lammy 'appalled and sickened' by civilian suffering in Gaza The UK foreign secretary also criticises Israel's rejection of an international statement calling for the war to end.

I am also appalled and sickened by war crimes being committed against Gazans. Unlike Lammy, I don't have the power to put sanctions in place against Israel.
Lammy - sanctions now!

Imagine if media outlets cared as much about NHS privatisation as they did about attacking striking workers…

Calling me inhumane is really going a bit too far, even if you think you're being gentle. I will leave it at that, we don't need to interact any further.

I'm not a medical professional.
You have been pretty rude in what you've written and I don't agree with you, that's all.
I'm sorry it's just when you wrote that you deal in facts, that I had to laugh, as you have been quoting people you've spoken to the whole time. I don't want to upset you.

That is pretty critical of you, and I think quite harsh.
