New EDMs 1314 Sage care workers and cleaners Tabled: 6/01/21 Signatories: 5 Paula Barker Rachel Hopkins Navendu Mishra Mick Whitley Kim Johnson That this House notes with deep concern that domestic staff and care workers employed at Sage Nursing Home, London NW11, are paid below the Real Living Wage at a rate of £8.72 - £9.60 per hour; is appalled that serious health and safety concerns and grievances regarding discriminatory treatment have not been addressed; notes that when staff are sick they receive only 50 per cent of their wages excluding the first day of absence and for a maximum of three weeks, something which forces staff to choose between paying their rent or their health and the health of residents; supports the workers’ demands for £12 per hour and parity in sick pay and annual leave with NHS workers; further calls on Sage to recognise the workers’ trade union of choice, United Voices of the World; and further calls on central government, local councils and care home providers to work together to put claps and fine words in praise of these key workers into action ensuring workers in care homes up and down the United Kingdom are given parity in pay, sick pay and annual leave with NHS workers and afforded the long overdue respect and dignity that they deserve.

  • Urgent Open Letter to the Chancellor Calling for a Delay to the Loan
    Urgent Open Letter to The Chancellor of the Exchequer calling for an immediate delay to the Loan Charge from 30th September 2020 to 31st January 2021 18th September 2020 Dear Chancellor, We are writing to implore you to delay the date for reporting the Loan Charge and concluding settlement agreements from 30th September 2020 to 31st January 2021. This is essential, to allow all those who wish to do so adequate time to settle and also due to the unforeseen impacts of the Covid-19 crisis. To date the response has talked about the previous change of date resulting from the Morse Review. However, that decision was made before the Covid-19 crisis. A further delay is now imperative as the pandemic has led to a situation where HMRC cannot properly conclude settlements by the specified deadline. The pandemic has also led to a change in financial circumstances for many, with some people losing their income or jobs and many small businesses being affected. It is clear from the evidence that HMRC simply cannot conclude settlements by 30th September, with them admitting there are 6000 cases in this position. Every taxpayer engaged in the settlement process has the right to have their settlement fully and properly conducted before being hit by the Loan Charge. It is clear from many cases being shared, that pre-Loan Charge settlements are not possible in the current timeframe and people are being pressured to sign a contract with unreasonable terms and interest charges, as well as penalties which vary from case to case and have not been explained Without a further delay, through no fault of their own, people will be denied the opportunity to settle in a reasonable timescale or potentially at all.

  • John Redwood: Brexit – the Front Line of the Establishment’S Battle for Control
    John Redwood: Brexit – the front line of the establishment’s battle for control We are pleased to be sharing an incredibly interesting extract from Member of Parliament for Wokingham Sir John Redwood’s new Bite- Size book. Titled ‘We Don’t Believe You: Why Populists and the Establishment See the World Differently’, the book gives us fresh insights into why the populist movements and parties have been winning elections. Sir John looks at how the experts and narrative pushed out by the established elites on both sides of the Atlantic have met with disbelief as well as with strong opposition. He shows how great parties have been all but destroyed as election winning forces as new movements and people sweep them aside. From the establishment himself as an expert and a member of one of the traditional parties, he seeks to show how the sensible elites adjust and respond to new moods and new ideas instead of confronting or denying them. Enjoy an extract from the book below: Brexit – the front line of the establishment’s battle for control A fight in which one side did not properly engage was fought and lost. Phoney forecasts, silly scares and arrogant assumptions left a great deal of damage In early 2016 the pro-EU establishment in the UK was feeling pleased with itself. They thought granting a referendum to the people on the vexed issue of the UK’s membership of the EU should settle the issue once and for all. The polls showed pretty steady leads for Remain. Big business, the leading global institutions, the President of the USA and most informed commentators would come out for the UK to stay in.
