The forced ‘impartiality’ of the charity sector has taken an another dark turn as now even workers within charities are banned from engaging in political activities:

Its embarrassing that BGET is still funding @Muna_Yassin_'s Rooted Finance after she fired two women on international women's day after they asked for fair pay and decent conditions
A huge thank you to @EnergyBritish partner charities and volunteers that helped the British Gas Post Office Pop-Ups happen this year. With your help, we hosted 102 events in 53 communities across GB. We couldn’t have done it without you!👍Pop-ups 2023: https://t.co/u8BNG5jPUr

@RootedFinance @Muna_Yassin_ @NESTInsight People in Tower Hamlets, @IWGBcharity & @TowerHamletsTC haven't forgotten your disgraceful union busting activities. If someone I knew needed financial advice, you'd be the last place I'd send them.

Weeks ago @RootedFinance dismissed most of its staff after they voted to strike. This week CEO @Muna_Yassin_ spoke at a @NESTInsight talk on financial security called Leaving Noone Behind Staggering levels of hypocrisy from an already-disgraced charity! https://t.co/fPtnbEcD4g

Was it something we said, @RootedFinance?
The disgraced @RootedFinance execs just got another visit from the frontline workers they fired after unionising. We let the office, populated by only 3 staff including CEO Muna Yassin, know that you can't get away with firing trade unionists without a fight.

Rachel Bentley’s campaign coordinator has reached out to inform us that she is no longer involved with @RootedFinance. By stepping down from the board Rachel adds to the pressure mounting on the GLA’s @TundeOlayinka1 and Hackney Mayor @carowoodley to take a stand.

Pictured below: @mayorofhackney Caroline Woodley running away from her promise to discuss the mass sacking of trade unionists at @hackneycouncil organisation Rooted Finance with their union @IWGBcharity
My first Hackney Half was so good I’ve just signed up for next year! It was incredible seeing everyone out supporting runners and vital charities! My time was slow but my smile was constant 😁 So proud of @hackneycouncil coordinating, cleaning up and supporting @HackneyMoves

Why is the the GLA still funding @RootedFinance, an organisation that sacked almost all of their front-line workers hours after they announced they were going on strike? We're asking @TundeOlayinka1 to take a stand.

Workers’ rights are a core priority for me. We need full recognition of trade unions by all schools. Union members should be able to meet on school premises and feedback to management. All schools follow the terms and conditions set by the DfE in negotiation with unions.

@guynicholson_ @CommunityUnion It's great that you support unions, would you be willing to meet with the sacked @RootedFinance workers to discuss the extreme and shocking anti-union behaviour they faced at a hackney council funded charity? https://t.co/D4ZYFDHXEd
Why are @hackneycouncil still funding Rooted Finance, an organisation that sacked 83% of their front-line workers after they asked for fair pay, adequate training, and union recognition? The council has neither intervened nor reached out to the sacked workers.

We know that it's a busy time in politics, but you are one of the few politicians that still makes time for ordinary people.
