Unite And Save Our Public Services.

With the onslaught of this Government's destructive policies, Public Workers can't afford not to think and not take action. We need to: 

Unite and Save Our Probation



Harry Fletcher informed us yesterday that work was still going on the in House of Commons and that Labour is going to table amendments to OR Bill 1) No selloff unless vote in both Houses 2) No roll out of TR unless Piloted first 3) Probation trusts allowed to tender for work with short term prisoners 4) Domestic Abuse work to stay public.

The Tom Rendon of NAPO says, "Massive thank you and well done to Napo members- hard slog of lobbying is yielding real results. # 2014 is our year" :)

Unite and Save Our NHS

Clive Peedell of the National Health Action Party says Privatisation of public services transfers public money to speculators and tax havens, & transfers financial risk from the rich to the poor.

Please sign the petition to withdraw clause 118 of Care Bill that makes it possible to close viable hospitals without consultation. 

Unite and Save Our Justice



Barrister Sam Parham says, "Seems that current generation of Tories have complete contempt for poor & vulnerable & are happy to be seen as nasty" and that " Probation Officers, Court Staff, Solicitors & Barristers must unite to stop Tories flogging off criminal justice - together we're strong".

Peter George Owen writes of the UK Moving Backwards: Half a Century of Social Progress Reversed in Last Decade and points to the Scriptonite Daily where it says,  "Those who say that we cannot or will not win this struggle, do an enormous injustice to the generations who brought us social democracy in the first place.  They faced excruciating circumstances and overcame them through persistence and solidarity.  This is all that is missing today…and it is not some gene that today’s generations are sadly lacking.  It is forgotten and needs to be relearned.  We need to do so, and fast. While many remain largely oblivious, their futures are being written for them, and it’s a future far from the promise of that post war promise that brought us so much, so fast, that we forgot we earned it".

Please sign this Petition against privatisation, as it's very important that our Public tune into the SOUL of Probation's Heritage and a Public Service that has served this country well.
