Join us on the 27th October for the March Against Austerity on the evening before Budget day.

We've just heard there will be no additional funding for NHS pay, that it would need to come from existing NHS budgets. .

This is completely unacceptable at a time when hospitals are facing millions of pounds of cuts.

We need our NHS, schools and councils to be funded properly.

We don't accept schools being closed and services being slashed.

Join us on the 27th October.

Ireland is pushing a motion to ban Israel from FIFA and UEFA. It has made JD Vance very mad. It's time to remove Israel from world sport, don't you agree?

I was pleased to bring solidarity today to traffic wardens and teaching assistants who are members of Camden UNISON, on strike today. I raised the March Against Austerity, taking place on the 27th October, on the eve of Budget day. This is a way we can call for proper funding for our services.

This must happen. It's so important for the people who need the care, and for those people providing the care. It's only fair.

The prime minister canโ€™t wait any longer to fix social care.

A National Care Service must start with action now:
โœ… Put care before private profit
โœ… Properly fund the Fair Pay Agreement
โœ… End exploitation in the sector

At 2pm on Monday 28th September, UNISON will hold a rally outside Labour conference to send a message โ€“ you can't build a National Care Service while attacking migrant workers.

I was honoured to meet Omar Barghouti, co-founder of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement and leading human rights activist at #TUC2026.

The labour movement has played a key role in moving the UK's position but we have much more to do to end UK complicity in genocide and Apartheid.

โ€œNHS staff have had enough of broken promises on pay.โ€

Tanya Pretswell at #TUC2026 calling for urgent reform of NHS pay.

Itโ€™s time to ditch the discredited Pay Review Body, negotiate directly with unions and deliver fair pay for NHS workers. โœŠ
