Overworked and underpaid


 This could just be a gentle hint to the TUC that now would be a good time to get off its knees and come to the aid of the NHS. The public mood could not be clearer. Health workers want a recognition of their vital role not a dose of the clap from Boris.

The prize for the most disingenuous mendacity goes as usual to Matt Hancock whose argument was that "other public sector workers have a pay freeze." This pay freeze is not an act of God, Matt old chap, it is yet another piece of Tory penny-pinching. Two wrongs do not make a right.

We can rely on NSSN to support health workers, the rank and file are solid, some of the trade union leaders need a wake-up call.
