Suggesting a pay rise of 2.5% to a sector which has been underinvested in for years is NOT the way to recruit and retain hard working Midwives and MSWs.

There were trans women at Stonewall. There were trans women at the first Pride rally in London. I marched with trans women on Section 28 protests in the 1980s. Our communities, our activism and our Pride histories are intertwined. #Pride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
