Please sign. I know someone affected by this. They have treated the workers appallingly. Letting them know 3 days before payday they had no job. Withholding a month's wages and being very slow to sort out redundancy etc.

As Labour touts more brutal cuts to benefits, how is this different from life under the Tories?
Reeves tweaks non-dom tax law because of βconcernsβ but ignores the cries of disabled, old, sick, poor. Poor are expendable. Wealthy potential donors less so.
Govt must change direction.
Many care experienced young people including those in kinship care have experienced trauma. Isolation from family & friends while in care can adversely impact mental health further. We're supporting the #FutureMindsCampaign calling for immediate, scalable action to address the mental health crisis
As the @thebda.bsky.social point out today
βto save a service millions depend on we need to see urgency and ambitionβ
Iβm backing the BDA in its call for urgent action to save NHS dentistry
Junior looking at inversion in lower Wharfedale and 'Brocken Spectre' on Otley Chevin.
Well, having missed the #HolmeValley inversion yesterday, self and grandson were rewarded with a lower Wharfedale inversion, with the added bonus of a 'Brocken Spectre'πdeveloping, which then hung around for a while...

Kids love paddling here in the summer, but no more π’ @premnsikka.bsky.social
Prefer it here, but feel like there's already a lot of fake accounts. Has some strange accounts follow me.
UK Labour govt to continue Tory policy - a planning βfree-for-allβ allowing developers to convert office blocks into flats without planning control.
New slums for the poor - Flats measuring 12ft x 12ft), poor ventilation, thin walls, lack of amenities.

A major road into Leeds has been shut for months and will be till March due to a sewage issue, most likely due to years of neglect in improving infrastructure. Absolute joke. Water taste has also deteriorated in recent years.
Third of Yorkshire Water customer bill cash goes on debt & dividend
Similar with other water companies.
Money borrowed to pay dividends, investment neglected, sewage dumped, customers fleeced; aapproved by OFWAT.
Must end the farce. Nationalise without compensation.

Give those who work in child services the resources and the training to do their job. Further upstream work on better access to rehab, re-introduce surestart model. Before anyone worries about the expenditure. It will cost a lot more when damaged children become broken adults. Break the cycle.
Shocking 14% rise in homelessness in England.
354,000 people homeless, includes 161,500 children - equivalent to city the size of Coventry.
Result of austerity, real wage/benefit cuts, unchecked profiteering.
Govts make slogans do nothing to end inequities.

Good to see you on here Lex. I have the same fear which is why I am not ditching one platform for another and aim to get a balance view. I like to see and hear all sides.
Keir Starmer says Saudi Arabia trip fulfils βnumber one missionβ to grow UK economy

A shocking revelation today in the #PhysicianAssociates scandal
It turns out the Health Secretary is using tax payers money to pay the GMCβs costs in defending the legal action brought by @anaesunited.bsky.social to protect patient safety - an outrageous use of public money youtu.be/T-BDHQop1zk?...
Agree, parenting is more than attachment, but too much emphasis is put on attachment when it comes to parenting programs, often leaving parents ill equipped and feeling blamed and shamed. Particularly mothers.

lt means we can provide specialist advice to more kinship carers eg
a grandmother seeking to take on the care of her grandchild who'd otherwise be in the care system

Absolutely. It's not my research area right now. Once I complete my PhD this is something I'd be interested in following up. There must be like-minded people out there.
Yes that's true. Then we see research from various ethnic groups saying 'the system doesn't work for us' they feel distrust and excluded. We need to be open to challenging our own perceptions of good parenting and listen and learn, instead we often label these families as unwilling to engage.
My son is being taught for a full year by a HLTA as can't get a teacher. Make it make sense!
Is it time to decolonise #attachmenttheory in #socialwork? Discuss.
