#CarersWeek draws to a close & as we reflect on the week we always look to what gives us hope, that's hasn't really been Carers Week, instead it's been the #DadStrike orchestrated by @thedadshift Calling for improved paternity leave, it shows how our existing economy doesn't meet citizens' needs. 🧵

Leaving your partner and a newborn to go to work is hell. And loads of other people have it much worse than I did.

If we want strong, healthy, equal relationships, we need decent paternity leave in this country.

Follow @thedadshift on other socials to see the campaign.

... that once blended in with their surroundings now sported colourful slings holding life size baby dolls.

The stunt was the work of campaign group #TheDadShift, highlighting their call for better parental leave rights in the UK.

If HR is correct, this oversight is easy to fix for our pay and conditions (let us take the 2 weeks in 2 flexible blocks) #NEUnion #NASUWT @bphillipsonMP #TheDadShift #SupportWorkingParents @TeachersSPL have been great for my wife but even this service doesn't go far enough.

The World Cup lasts three times longer than statutory paternity leave in the UK.

Socialist feminists have long argued that care work is work. Two weeks paternity leave shows how little that work is valued.

Kudos for doing chores however, as I made clear, the statistics clearly state how gendered chores *still* are, and how much childcare is done by women due to low take up of paternity leave and shared care est by @thedadshift . It is not sexist if I am hilighting gendered issues in the workplace?
