"The more evidence about the chronic risk of climate change that's available, the better that FDA members and many others can carry out their duties across public service."
Catch up from yesterday as FDA President @margarethaig.bsky.social
moved our amendment on Motion 31a #TUC25
We’ve just seen a weekend of high political drama, which meant our motion at TUC Congress 2025 on standards in government was more prescient than expected.
FDA President Margaret Haig moves an amendment to a motion on UK resilience at TUC Congress 2025
“Adding information about climate change to the evidence available for policy makers can help facilitate the cross-departmental collaboration.”

An inspiring woman, I will be telling everyone about Jeanie Nassau Senior for years to come! It was a pleasure to represent @fdaunion.bsky.social at the installation of the new plaque here at Battersea Arts Centre
Great thread about the continuing need for reform in relation to standards. I ❤️ the Nolan principles, but a properly constituted, independent Ethics Commission would provide transparency and confidence 🧵👇
Retaining - as well as recruiting - talent is key to any organisation’s success, not high churn rates and uncompetitive pay. If the government wants to transform public services it must move away from a hand-to-mouth approach and deliver a new long-term strategy on pay.
This year's #FDAADC25 is underway! 😊
As I told @civilserviceworld.bsky.social language is important in these situations & a former Defence minister accusing officials of appeasement undermines the difficult role that civil servants have to play in advising ministers on conflicts like Ukraine.

I've really enjoyed being at #STUC25 in Dundee, hearing about issues that matter in Scotland and beyond, as well as the inspirational work of reps here.
It was an absolute delight to speak to the CPS members of @fdaunion.bsky.social, an afternoon of fascinating debate from dedicated reps.

Really looking forward to 3 days here #TUCWomensConference leading a fabulous delegation from @fdaunion.bsky.social
A fascinating evening, commenting on 7000 responses to @FDA_union survey on UK civil service hybrid working, compared with private sector & Irish civil service. I was struck by the need for purposeful in-person working, and for tailored management skills & appropriate facilities
A great AGM for our NI Section, in cold but welcoming Belfast. I was so pleased to attend as current President.
