An absolute privilege to be the MP for FST. An honour to join a strong team of SF MLAs, councillors and activists who work tirelessly for everyone.

Health and care services are crying out for more nurses but students are struggling to find jobs when they graduate.
Slowing down recruitment to meet arbitrary government budget targets is not how you deliver for patients.
Students must have a job guarantee on graduation.
“There’s thousands of people about to qualify and no jobs for us so I don’t know how you’re invested in the workforce”
This nursing student tells the Conservatives’ Mark Harper that his party has “failed the NHS”

To be clear Prime Minister, we have not reached an NHS pay settlement for nursing - our members rejected the government's offer and remain in dispute. We expect whoever forms the next government to start direct negotiations on nursing pay during the summer. #ITVdebate #GE2024

For too long nursing staff have been overworked, underpaid and pushed to breaking point. Our manifesto makes demands to turn that around.
When you invest in nursing, you invest in patients, you invest in society.
The public values nursing. We ask prospective politicians to do the same.

It's not good enough for a minister to say corridor care is only "a specific issue in some areas".
More than 1 in 3 nursing staff report delivering care in inappropriate settings.
This is a system in crisis and politicians need to stop burying their heads in the sand.
Some patients are being treated and sometimes dying in #hospital corridors according to @theRCN
What is the #government and @KemiBadenoch's plan to solve this?

"There is a clear call from participants for MH nurse education to be recognised as a distinct specialisation... emphasising the importance of specialist training–a clear response to the sense that MH nurses can often feel invisible" #MHDeservesBetter onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

I wonder how well equipped we are in dealing with the current change in presentation of our CYP in MH services. What we worked with 10years ago felt far less challenging to now. The new challenge is extremely high risk behaviours embedded in psychosocial & emotional difficulties.

The 24/25 NHS pay award is now over a month late.
Every day of delay is another day of financial hardship for nursing staff.
Fair pay is key to protecting patient care, ministers needs to wake up to this to this fact.

👏🏼 Laura. Congress 2018 @RCNMHForum raised awareness of nurse suicide, but 5 years on significant support gaps exist & numbers are increasing despite the evidence @annessarebair . Nurses need support to recognise the signs, know what to do & how to respond. #RCNCongress2023 – at Kensington, London
