Covid nearly broke NHS "Staff were giving everything, in some cases their lives, to deliver the care needed. Shamefully, they were all but forgotten, burnt out and exposed to the virus, without even basic safety equipment.” Sara Gorton, UNISON unsn.uk/47ErDaw

Staff faced higher risks, structural racism, migrant worker precarity and weakened safety regulation. The Covid-19 Inquiry makes the findings clear. The NHS cannot keep people safe without real investment, strong partnership working and a government that puts staff first.

Healthcare staff were badly let down during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Covid-19 Inquiry reveals about years of underfunding, unsafe conditions and the political decisions that left NHS workers exposed.

'Only the superhuman efforts of staff pulled the NHS back from the brink during the pandemic.' Sara Gorton from UNISON on the Covid Inquiry report into the NHS response to the pandemic.

“They're also politically self-defeating, likely to alienate Labour’s progressive support base, and they won't convince Reform supporters that imitation is better than the real thing.

Reports today that Downing Street may be watering down proposed punitive reforms to the immigration system won’t be good enough, says UNISON general secretary @AndreaEganGS, adding the proposals should be scrapped altogether.
