  • The Labour Party WHO’S WHO in the EAST
    The Labour Party WHO’S WHO IN THE EAST NOT AN OFFICIAL LABOUR PARTY DOCUMENT Stephen Thomas| 12th April 20 0 https://socialistandtradeunionism.org/ Forward The first steps into socialist politics can be a minefield. Like many organisations the membership has different views but has one socialist theme on how we should represent the people, take the Party forward and lead the Country. We have recently lost yet another General Election. Labour’s, some would say, knee jerk reaction, has led to a swing to the right after several years to the socialist left under Jeremy Corbyn. Whichever way you look at it, it is the members of the party that choose the policies and it is the Leaders responsibility to deliver on them. The choice of the leader is how to implement them and ignite the country so once again they too can believe in our socialist values. At the time of writing, the world is going through a Pandemic, with tens of thousands of people dying. The Conservative Party is in power with a massive majority and are at their most popular, mainly through implementing Labour’s socialist policies. Now collectively known as frontline staff, the country has come to recognize the worth and value of our NHS, careers and cleaning staff. Political theories have entwined with each other and some would fear it has now become more difficult to distinguish between the political Parties. Once the survivors return to a normal way of life, where we can once again visit our family and friends, go to work, walk in the countryside and visit the seaside, then please don’t let the country return to the old Conservative ways of doing things.

  • Minutes of Virtual Zoom Meeting, 12:30 to 13:30, Friday 1St May
    Covid-19: Taking Stock - Assessing the urgent action needed to support the Care Sector, supply of PPE and more Non-Verbatim Minutes of Virtual Zoom Meeting, 12:30 to 13:30, Friday 1st May WELCOME AND INTRODUCTION Alison McGovern, Chair of the APPG gave a short introduction to the first ‘virtual’ Liverpool City Region (LCR) APPG meeting the group has had and stated it is important, and the right thing to do, to attempt to keep going with the meetings of the group at this important time. CONTRIBUTIONS FROM PANELLISTS Lynne Morris, UNISON Regional Manager began by explaining and outlining the Unison NW survey launched across the region, which over 2,700 care workers – from over 1,000 care settings including residential homes care homes and learning disabilities - completed. The survey found that two thirds of the care workers said that their employer was not doing enough to keep them or the people they cared for safe. 66% of the care workers surveyed said they were concerned about a lack of PPE and 78% said they were concerned about infecting the people that they actually cared for. Ms Morris said that in the Liverpool City Region specifically, there were examples of staff being told not to wear masks because it would scare some of the dementia residents and of staff having to buy their own PPE equipment, even when they were coming into contact with COVID-19 cases. Additionally, the survey found that 8 out of 10 workers stated they would not be paid their full wages if they became ill or if they needed to self-isolate; instead they would get statutory sick pay of £95 a week, which is inadequate to support them and their families.

  • November 2020
    November 2020 Aley Green Pepperstock Slip End Woodside Greetings to all our readers. Firstly, my thanks to Editors’ Notes Matt for producing such an excellent magazine last month. It was good to be able to sit back and let someone else take over. I am sure you will all agree he did a great job. The Committee welcomes him to the Team! Since I last edited an issue of the magazine, the weather seems to have changed. We had many walks and days out on dry (sometimes warm and sunny) days over the past few months but suddenly things have changed, We welcomed Autumn with several days of pouring rain! My husband collects weather data and commented that in 2 or 3 days in early October we had significantly more rain than in the whole of September! In fact it measured over 90mm then and it has continued to be wet since! You will see that the Parish Council is reminding Central Beds Council that we have issues with flooding around the Parish. Maybe the puddles will recede one day! (see photo of me, contemplating the “river” on the road near Woodside, plus others opposite—care should be taken driving in water!) Our diary pages are still significantly empty. Many people are still resorting to technology to continue their business, Church services, fitness regimes or other clubs and groups, I know some Scouting groups have been using Zoom and social media. Clubs have met online or put pictures on facebook. The Book club keep in contact via WhatsApp and have had a few socially distanced outdoor meetings.
