UK Council Workers Threaten Massive Strike Over 'Pitiful' Pay Offer

I get why the workers are frustrated — 3% doesn’t go very far with the way prices have been rising. At the same time, councils are strapped for cash too, so it'…

Hardworking public servants deserve fair pay that keeps up with the cost of living—this 3% offer just doesn’t cut it.

Honestly, it's about time workers stood up—3% is a joke when inflation is eating up way more than that.

Should gay couples have the same adoption rights as straight couples?

No, and I believe a mother and father family structure is best for the child

Psychological studies suggest that the roles of parenting are broken down into primary and secondary caregivers, and are not reliant on gender

Family structure can range from one parent to same-sex parents. As long as children are raised with love and care.

@B4PR339 answered…11hrs11H

@B4PR339 answered…11hrs11H

@B4PR339 answered…11hrs11H

Should there be fewer or more restrictions on current welfare benefits?

More, because they should go to those most in need, they should supplement income rather than being something to live off
