Wouldn't it be refreshing if the way that all those care jobs will be filled was if govt committed funding to revolutionise the sector, investing in training & payment commensurate with the privilege it is to tend, nurse, & love other humans, recognising the skill, compassion and courage it takes?

YouTube video by Peter Stefanovic Let’s make Jacob’s day and join a union today

Without trade unions we wouldn’t have

• a minimum wage
• maternity & paternity rights
• pension provision
• holiday & sickness entitlements

victories which have benefited every single person in this country

This really isn't hard,
Fix Social Care first, then fix the NHS
It's like pouring water into a bucket with big holes in it.
