Have been out and about interviewing some of the care workers who have been treated so appallingly by Fremantle [1], the company that Barnet Council outsourced its care contracts to. Back with a writeup soon.
...but not before sending a thought out to our very own deputy Labour Party leader Harriet Harman, self-described champion of women's rights [2]: Harriet, old girl - how about you prove your commitment to us females by supporting the Trade Union Freedom bill [2] and giving women like the ones being shafted by Fremantle a chance to protect their salaries and terms and conditions?
Go on, Harriet.
Go nuts.
