Mick Lynch brilliant on
#GMB
Rightly pointing out that it’s not Railway Workers costing lives in the NHS, it’s underfunding, lack of beds, chronic understaffing and rampant privatisation. Solidarity!
Today, over 100,000 Nursing Staff will be on picket lines fighting for our profession, our safety, to protect our patients, and to fight for the future of our NHS!
Our fight is your fight.
If you stand with us - Please RT 💙
Will you support

Staff if they strike for pay and safety?
If you will, give us a follow as we continue our fight for safety across the health service

#NHSPayCut
Our Band 2 Colleagues currently earn £9.49 an hour.
In April the Minimum Wage goes up to £9.50 and we know our next pay award (due in Apr) will be delayed AGAIN.
So in April our hardworking band 2 NHS workers will be earning below min wage!
RT if you agree this is a DISGRACE
Lots of hate directed at us on twitter today! It won’t distract us from our fight, we believe in a fully funded NHS which is safe for all.
We also believe that year on year of cuts to our pay leaving us in a dangerous retention crisis isn’t ok either.
Haters gonna hate ✌️
NHS Staff should not be using food banks. They should not be selling back their annual leave to make ends meet and they should NOT be forced to work in unsafe conditions after a decade of cuts to their pay.
RT if you agree. Enough is enough!
What a powerful image!
NHS Privatisation has cost many lives, and will keep costing more which is why we must unite to fight against it.
Healthcare is a human right.
Inspiring day highlighting the damaging risks of privatisation
Well done
@We_OwnIt
!
And rightly supported by
@keepnhspublic
supporters from Newcastle to Barnstable, Bristol and several London groups
Although we happily say good riddance to

Do you agree?

History has been made!
Nurses have voted to take NATIONAL Strike Action against this excuse for a Gov.
NO to poor pay
NO to unsafe working conditions
NO to our patients being out at risk
There will be attacks on us and our profession!
Are you with us???
#SocialistSunday
The NHS is operating with a shortfall of 154,000 staff.
If current trends continue, that figure will hit over 570,000 by 2036!
Tory attacks on the NHS have left staff & patients in danger which is why we are organising & fighting back like never before.
Are you with us?
We have faced over a decade of cuts to our pay leaving over 100,000 vacancies
Our colleagues are relying on food banks, and working 40+ hours a week and selling back their annual leave just to survive
We are saying

The Tories have cut NHS workers wages by about 30% on average.
No shift is fully staffed.
Patients are suffering.
Staff are overworked and burnt out.
That's why we have no choice but to fight back!

As we approach
#NHS75
you can be sure there’s nothing to celebrate.
- Highest waiting lists on record
- Only 25% of shifts fully staffed
- Over 150,000 staff vacancies
We don’t need reform, we need investment to retain staff & keep our patients safe.
Let’s keep up the fight!
We do not accept 3% after a decade of cuts to our pay.
Chronic understaffing, unsafe working conditions and 5 million sat on waiting lists!
Tomorrow we march on Downing Street. WHO IS WITH US?
