🚨 | NEW: Rishi Sunak is likely to OVERRULE the independent pay review bodies as he believes their recommended rises for teachers and junior doctors are too high - 6.5% for teachers for 2023-24 - above 6% for junior doctors, police etc [ @thetimes ]

Current teacher pay for UPS3 in England: £43,685 Scottish teacher pay at year 6: £48,516 It takes many teachers at least 12 years to reach UPS3 (if they're able to make it at all) I'm hearing lots of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 teachers saying theyre moving to 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Let's build the strikes on 15th/16th

I go to bed thinking the same thing as I woke up thinking "If you fight you might lose, but if you don't fight you will always lose" Organised Trade Unions are the only thing that can defend our communities from a govt that doesn't value the lives of ordinary people.

The crisis in school attendance is rightly being talked about in public discourse. However, laying the blame at the door of parents really is letting this government off the hook. The reasons children are absent can be complex - poverty, SEND, mental health distress, etc.…

Just a reminder that lifting the 2 child benefit cap would lift 250,000 children out of poverty overnight and result in 850,000 children living in less deep poverty.... Cap the bankers not the children.

37 of the 50 have been saved from deportation no thanks to Keir Rodney Starmer. The silence from the @UKLabour leadership has been deafening. They have done nothing to stop the deportation of the decendents of Windrush citizens. Talk of antiracism is cheap. Dark days return

This is more than about keeping children and educators safe. Transmission in school is driving transmission in the community. To protect communities the government must listen to its own scientific advisors and delay opening in January. Shift online and vaccinate.
