Jeremy Corbyn shows support for Derby Teaching Assistants

Today we attended Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership rally in Derby, here’s a short video from the event.

Excellent support was shown to Jeremy and excellent support from Jeremy to UNISON Derby city school support staff for their ongoing dispute.

Nicole Berrisford our Branch Secretary had an in-depth conversation with Jeremy about the dispute in Derby. Nicole said how refreshing it was to be listened too and likewise UNISON members in Derby have the full support of Jeremy Corbyn.

He also mentioned the Campaign that WASPI – Women Against State Pension Inequality Campaign have been carrying out and what they want to achieve.
