No care service without us ✊ Care workers hold our social care system together.
We need a national care service to deliver care people can rely on.
That means better pay, safer staffing and decent conditions for all – plus security and justice for migrant care workers.

Last night, outsourced workers, activists and trade unionists came together to send a clear message: the age of outsourcing is over.
Every year, corporate outsourcing giants make billions from public contracts while leaving services and the people who provide them worse off.

Banks made nearly £50bn in profit last year, after pocketing hundreds of billions of pounds in a taxpayer-funded bailout, shutting down High Street branches, rigging interest rates and laundering money for Mexican coke cartels. Now they are lobbying hard against a bank tax.

There's nothing more powerful than when workers start to connect.
If we are bolder, are willing to take risks and stand together we can achieve so much.

Government's immigration changes are making social care's staffing crisis worse and should be scrapped, says UNISON.

Today I met with our trans, non-binary and gender diverse members.
So many members have written to us explaining that the updated EHRC guidance is unworkable.
I will work with our trans non-binary and gender diverse members to change the law for legal gender recognition.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
UK SC unanimously ruled on 16.04.2025 that “sex” “woman” and “man” in the Equality Act 2010 mean biological sex. Trans identified people have not lost rights, they remain protected separately by the Act's gender reassignment provisions and other discrimination protections.
