NHS Pay rise
Do not ban gender transition treatments for under 18s in the uk
The Government should not restrict trans health care treatments to under 18s in the UK. Treat these trans minors as human beings and do not use their age to justify restricting medical treatment.
The average nurse in the UK has lost 20% of their income in the last 10 years. It’s not surprising that there are 100,000 vacancies within our NHS. And that many of us NHS workers are using food banks to get by.
NHS workers have played a pivotal role in keeping this country going during the pandemic. It’s only fair that NHS staff are properly awarded for their hard work, and that’s why we’re calling for a 15% pay rise for all NHS staff.
