Happy International Women's Day 🌹 ✊️

Looking forward to attending this year's conference on behalf of Napo

Violence against women and girls rose by almost 40% between 2018 and 2023 to levels amounting to a "national emergency"—there was no change in 2024.

We're joining LATUC to talk about recognising workplace sexual harrasement, and how we push for real protections.

We were back on the picket line at Livv Housing this morning with our general secretary @paulnowaktuc.bsky.social , Knowsley MP @anneliesemidgleymp.bsky.social and importantly, @knowsleyunison.bsky.social and @unitenorthwest.bsky.social members

The support is growing and will until they win✊

1 in 3 workers report having experienced sexual harrasement in the previous year alone, through the Employment Rights Bill, the Government now has the opportunity to force employers to take preventive steps.

Please urgently ask your MP to sign the Early Day Motion

The government’s decision not to compensate the Waspi women despite the Ombudsmen’s recommendations is a disgrace. Ministers are making the wrong choices - they need to turn back now because voters will not forgive them. #WASPI

🧵#WASPI response to today's Govt decision to ignore PHSO recommendations on compensation:
"The Government has today made an unprecedented political choice to ignore the clear recommendations of an independent watchdog which ordered ministers urgently to compensate WASPI women nine months ago.

Turkeys voting for Christmas? No. But turkey delivery drivers are voting for strike action because their Scrooge of a boss won't give them a decent pay rise.
"Culina should be ashamed it is acting as a Scrooge employer. Our members deserve a pay rise this year" @unitesharon.bsky.social 🎄🤶

#WASPI women need to know what “working at pace” means. Without a deadline, it is meaningless. We need firm implementation dates for a proper compensation scheme.

BREAKING 🚨 | Supposedly impartial Tory Chair of the Employment Rights Bill Committee, Christopher Chope, has been caught on a hot mic praising the testimony of right wing boss Luke Johnson:

"That was exemplary. That needs to put on our YouTube."

Duties to report restraint in schools must now be brought into force Carolyne Willow writes about recent reports of restraint being used against children, and why legal duties introduced in 2009 must be brought into force

Autistic abuse case must never happen again, says No 10 CCTV shown to the BBC shows children being thrown to the floor in padded rooms at special needs school.

Here we go again with media exposure of appalling mistreatment of very vulnerable children, and policy makers declaring "this is intolerable - never again".

Legislation *passed in 2009* must now be commenced, as a first step in protecting children.
