I will be away from base taking part in the union’s annual briefing event for divisional secretaries from Wednesday to Friday so there may not be any new postings here until the weekend. Internet access is unreliable in deepest Grantham but the course itself is probably the best training event the union runs and most of us find it invaluable. If there is anything worth reporting a way will be found to post it but comments and responses requires me to get into my home email so that will have to wait
This year it should see the official launch of a 10-week campaign to get a good turnout and a clear ‘yes’ vote for action on pay. Time will be found for politicking and networking. In particular we might gather our thoughts on the prospects of getting a respectable vote to reject the 2.5% sixth form pay offer.
Thanks to Andy Dixon, Martin Ohr, Jean Lane and Andy Parsons for being the first to enter comments on various subjects covered on this blog and to various others for sending me individual reactions by email
