Discussion on Employer NIC “it was weighed in the balance … unpopular opinion … but we had to raise the £26bn needed for public sector”. Totally ignoring the contributions the sector makes to keep essential services open and the consequences this will have to the people most at need #SCVOGathering
George Bellamy@ghbellamy.bsky.social · 2y ago💬 “You’ve been punching below your weight” and “you’ve not stepped into leadership” is not necessarily the message I expected from @kirstymcneill.bsky.social addressing #SCVOGathering Hard message when the sector props up state contacts by £2.4bn & 62% charities deliver without full cost recovery.

⚽️ So let me get this right, a charity football match specifically arranged in aid of promoting inclusivity and equality for #LGBTQI minorities is headed by a captain who doesn’t subscribe to promoting those values? 🤔 What a poor show from @ipswichtown.bsky.social www.attitude.co.uk/news/ipswich...

Morsy was the only of 20 participating captains to not wear the armband during matches meant to promote LGBTQ+ inclusivity in sport.
