Unite said that 14 February 2011 would be remembered as the day when three events converged to spell very grim news for charities.
The recent decision to privatise the running of civil service pensions exposes the true nature of the government's mutualism agenda, PCS says.
Members of PCS will stage a Valentine's Day 'love-in' tomorrow to highlight a campaign to save the nation's cultural assets from spending cuts.
A major campaign to stop cuts further blighting the lives of the UK’s young people will get underway in earnest as around 1,000 young people gather in Solihull to say “enough is enough†to ministers and council leaders.
Responding to the government's proposed changes announced today (Friday) to the vetting and barring scheme on employees and volunteers who work with children and vulnerable adults, TUC General Secretary Brendan Barber said:
“We believe that the government has a key role to play in reducing the risk of harm and neglect through the barring of unsuitable individuals from working with children and vulnerable adults. But the previous system was disproportionate and poorly targeted. Too many individuals found themselves at the wrong end of misplaced accusations with little chance of appeal.
UCU today hit out at plans to more than double fees to be a member of the Institute for Learning (IfL) from £30 to £68 a year from April. Membership of the IfL is compulsory for lecturers in further education and UCU has warned that members will be furious at the increase.
