Andrew Dismore – on real Loyalty – Your Choice Barnet

“It is outrageous that  Your Choice Barnet is cutting care workers’  pay  by 9.5%. These dedicated workers are not paid nearly enough  to start with, and pay cuts like this  are a kick in the face to these hardworking staff who do a demanding job, that most people would find they could not do nearly as well or as cheerfully.

YCB talks about loyalty- but YCB workers in this desperate dispute for justice show what real loyalty means. Not sham ‘loyalty’ out of fear of hardship to a heartless and exploitative  ‘rip off’ boss,  but  loyalty  to their clients who need a decent service for which decent pay should be awarded; and loyalty to each other, through their solidarity and support for their union backed by  its members, including myself, who are standing side by side with  YCB workers  in their fight for a fair settlement .’
