  • Isabel I have been discussing what has happened to us during maternity leave, us not being paid, and want to take action but we cant do it without you guys.

  • As I speak on behalf of everyone else, I agree. We can't strike though because we could get hurt. The least we could do is get in touch with our trade union and speak to the trade unionorganiser.
