I am not joking when I say this. If you take the ingredients for your favourite recipe and just put them in a giant bowl and use a big spoon to shove it in your mouth, it is just as good as following a recipe.

Today, migrant care workers are taking their message directly to Labour conference - keep your promise to the workers who came to the UK to care for our communities. They'll be joined by UNISON general secretary Andrea Egan and others. Invest in social care 🩵 Support #FairVisasNow #LabConf26

Migrant care workers rally outside Labour conference

Andrea Egan:
The NHS, social care and other essential services rely on the hard work of migrant staff.

People came to this country to help look after our loved ones on the promise of being able to settle in the country after five years.

Now the government is breaking that promise with the threat of up to 15 years of insecurity and exploitation.

The government must drop these plans, and invest properly in public services.

Andrea Egan, UNISON general secretary
will be joining workers at the rally today

Our data at @ipsosintheuk.bsky.social shows part of the reason for Labour's fortunes improving under Burnham is that they are retaining more of their 2024 vote (61% today vs 46% under Starmer). Notable drop in Lab to Green switchers. Is Burnham uniting the left?

Ravi S @ravisubbie.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

I can't imagine any Cabinet minister under Starmer saying this. The Burnham govt still has more to do on responding to the far right and promoting anti racist norms. But this is good. Now need to hear more Cabinet ministers speaking out.

'Teaching assistants, cleaners and all other school support staff are long overdue a better deal,’ says UNISON general secretary Andrea Egan on reports the government will let schools use money saved from support staff pension funds to pay for the teachers’ pay award.

Andrea Egan:
School support staff overdue a better deal

"Setting worker against worker is never the answer.

"Teaching assistants, cleaners and all other support staff are long overdue a better deal. Any money saved from the local government pension scheme must go towards improving their pay and conditions.

"”This plan also raises practical concerns about how any redistribution of pensions will work. Schools don’t pay the same pension contributions across the country.

"Some could be left without any budget savings because their employer contributions won’t actually fall."

What on earth is happening?

This had become the new normal. RNLI crew members had been forced to take their permits off their cars after their tyres have been repeatedly slashed. Most of them have been pilloried at the school gates or turned away from local pubs. One man who worked in search and rescue had been beaten unconscious and hospitalised, recognised for TV interviews he had done.

A lot of people seem to take it as a fact that the private sector has secret efficiency magic the public sector doesn't have. It doesn't. It pays workers less and charges more for the same service. That's like 99% of private sector "efficiency." And everyone's worse off, except shareholders.

NEW Why holding a placard is a terrorist act, while causing disruption in a balaclava is not The mess caused by ministers and the police not taking terrorism law seriously By me at @prospectmagazine.co.uk www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/law/th...

Recent events in England now reveal the practical difference between terrorists and protesters. It would seem that terrorists peacefully hold placards and get immediately arrested, while protesters wear black uniforms and balaclavas and disrupt infrastructure and do not get arrested.

How did we get into this mess? How have we placed ourselves in the position where terrorism legislation is used to detain and prosecute peaceful protesters, while those adopting the terror tactics of private armies seem to be free to do as they wish?

The reason is that for some time British politicians have not taken terrorism legislation seriously, and that ministers have got into the habit of misusing terror laws for easy targets.
