Great to see so many teachers protesting about the scandalous lack of permanency and stability in teaching! They know it's bad for pupils, as well as for those trapped in insecurity.

Proud to join so many trade unionists and activists to demand #WelfareNotWarfare. But ashamed that this demo is necessary! @eisunion.bsky.social #EducatorsForPeace @edinburgheis.bsky.social

#EducatorsForPeace
@eisunion.bsky.social @scottishtuc.bsky.social
Great speakers from across society - disabled people, trade unionists, health care workers and others. All saying ##WelfareNotWarfare. Our politicians must prioritise spending on supporting ordinary people, not warfare across the world.
