September | 2009 | Defend the NHS
https://gillgeorge.wordpress.com/2009/09
Gill’s Union Blog. About Gill George’s Blog. September 3, 2009. Apologies for a quiet few months. I’ve been seeing the NHS from another angle, having acquired myself a diagnosis of ‘syringomyelia’. This is a rather obscure spinal condition relatively common in spaniels, apparently, but quite rare in people. You know you’ve got something a bit unusual when you go and see your GP to discuss treatment options, and she says, ‘Now tell me what that is’. So how has the NHS been, so far? The latest bit of madne...

Gill’s Union Blog. About Gill George’s Blog. Solidarity with the Visteon Occupation. I was at an inspiring meeting in North London last night – a solidarity meeting with the Visteon workers who are in occupation now. What did they do? At two of the three plants involved (Enfield and Belfast) they’ve gone into occupation. Visteon was hived off by Ford back in 2000, but workers were told they were guaranteed Ford contracts for life. That would mean no compulsory redundancies. Instead, Ford is saying. The s...
