Luke Murphy MP: "Since 1970, half of our country's recessions have been caused by oil and gas price shocks." "The UK is paying the price of for a broken energy system" "Research has shown that the cost of cutting UK emissions to net zero is less than the cost of a single fossil fuel price shock."

@unions21.org Board today so just rereading the latest report on union cultures unions21.org/files/u21_cu...

It is curious, but it appears to be true, that Britain's centuries old constitutional monarchy is trying, eventually and belatedly, to find some cathartic route to how to ensure that nobody is above the law than the American Republic will attempt with the President himself.

If you are arguing that people or organisations should be wishing people happy Lent you are clearly not a practicing Christian and never have been one. Lent is part of the run up to Easter, the most important Christian festival. You wish people Happy Easter on Easter Sunday.

NHS pay award ‘makes absolutely no ground on restoration’ A pay award of 3.3% for NHS workers in England, Wales and Northern Ireland is unacceptable. The government announced the award for 2026/7, having accepted recommendations from the NHS PRB. #CSP4FairPay

CSP welcomes starting salary increase, but questions funding The Department of Health and Social Care announced today that pay for all band 5 Agenda for Change NHS staff would rise ahead of negotiations over other changes to the contract.

Times (and apparently Cabinet Ministers) apparently confusing Labour Party rules with U.K. constitution Labour Party rules set out what happens if LEADER of party is ‘permanently unavailable’. But they dont match up the principles, precedents and expectations about what happens fo replace a PM. 1/

What are the worse representations of PR practitioners on film or TV? The character in .@Channel4 Patience gets my vote.

'We don’t want patients paying the price for this when there’s a solution ready to go.' Ash James @HSJnews reports on our latest survey data: 8 in 10 of NHS physios do not have enough staff to meet demand and 65% said their service was subject to recruitment freezes.

'This analysis should be a warning that we cannot just keep doing the same things year after year. 'Part of the solution is improving access to community services.' - Rob Yeldham Our response to The Health Foundation data, which found that delayed discharge figures are worsening. #RightToRehab

The idea of “imported” violence against women and girls is a deeply comforting fiction - one that allows people to avoid looking at where it actually happens: within our homes and behind closed doors.

@thecsp.bsky.social welcomes transformative Employment Rights law www.csp.org.uk/news/2025-12...

Shocked that a supposedly mainstream party leader is resorting to false extremist claims about the main threats women face. All violence against women. And girls is wrong but most sexual violence is from partners or colleagues and not random foreign strangers.

Royal Assent to the Employment Rights ACT. What a day. We did it.

'These new rights will be transformative for our members in workplaces across the country and represent the first pro-worker, pro-union laws in a generation.' The Employment Rights Bill, which introduces new rights for people in the workplace, cleared its final parliamentary hurdle.

How can the biggest change in employment law in the UK in generations, impacting millions of workers, not make the front page of the BBC News app?

‘Your action helped make this happen, now your evidence can help ensure the final guidance truly reflects the needs of physiotherapy and wider AHP services.’ NHS England has commissioned an evidence review that will help shape new AHP safe staffing guidance.

🚨BREAKING: Employment Rights Bill passes in the House of Lords and will become law. This is an historic day for working people across the country, and the trade unions who represent them.

A review of foreign interference in British democracy might close down some of the loopholes which make laundering foreign donations pretty straightforward. www.gov.uk/government/n...

@thecsp.bsky.social comments on delayed discharge reports www.csp.org.uk/news/2025-12...

'MSK disease is the single biggest contributor to England’s healthy life expectancy gap.' Richard Harris in @HSJnews on how community physiotherapy could address the immediate need and support a healthier population in the long term. Physiotherapy works and pays back.

@rafaelmesquita14.bsky.social appreciate the follow

'We welcome the development of new neighbourhood health centres that have rehabilitation embedded from the outset - not as an add-on, but as core to how communities stay healthy.' @sarahazzard.bsky.social Our response to the announcement of 250 new neighbourhood health centres. #RightToRehab

💷📉 The first independent economic analysis of physiotherapy shows it saves the NHS more than it costs. Just four interventions save the NHS £145m a year. Read the report and use the Value Calculator to see what your service saves: www.csp.org.uk/roi #RightToRehab

Member Karen Poole represented the CSP in Parliament, giving evidence to inform the 10-year workforce plan for the NHS in England. We're calling for a plan that fully recognises physiotherapy and rehabilitation as central to achieving the NHS’s goals: www.csp.org.uk/news/2025-11...
