Migrant 'health surcharge' to raise £200 million a year

[Michael Parnham]

I received a letter from my Union Unison.

This is part of it:

"Although the parties are yet to set out their plans in detail, the Conservatives have already indicated that if they win the general election we can expect to see:

* Up to one million more job losses across public services - jobs like yours
* a continued squeeze on your pay, when people are already an average of £1,600 a year worse off since the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats formed the coalition.
*Further drastic cuts to the NHS and other public services that you and your family members rely on - and that you help provide in your job in health.


Interesting.

Blooming Unions!

Blooming Unions!

Micheal what is you're view about what unison have said?

My view is that Unions should not try to influence workers on which way to vote, my opinion is that the NHS is Britains baby and whatever party wins the election is not going to see NHS workers (who do a dam good job ) or the NHS suffer financially. Always remember Unions are in business to make money for themselves and a good Union leader should be a good negotiater and not bring workers out on strike, look what Scargill did for the miners, closed the pits and now he's the most hated man in Barnsley area!
