Let’s get this going!

Hi all I just came across this petition, as we all know SMP is shocking. I’m currently in the last 3 months of mine so not getting a single penny from my employer. Luckily I saved as much as I could to take the full year off but it’s still had major challenges. Now the minimum wage has gone up to £12.21 I’m now on less than the minimum and my employer hasn’t increased my wages. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/715292

I’ve been signing these petitions since I had my first child in 2019, the gov won’t do anything as they want everyone back in work 😂

This is actually so sad. Makes me sick paying so much tax every month just for this when you finally decide to have a family

@Emily yeah, we've already heard Kemi Badenoch say SMP is too much. They're not going to do anything.

Totally agree. Anyone wanting to earn more on the side i have some info you may be interested in reading . I'm a teacher and single parent . So when I was juggling a high pressured career and home life I was forced to choose one. UNTIL I found something that allowed me to be both. I am now a home based travel agent and it really has opened my eyes to how flexible and remote work can be and it is liberating. I earn on the go and in my sleep ( yes literally ) It's not for everyone but it definitely is something that everyone wants to do as travel is the most lucrative thing out there right now. I earn and save on my own holidays so I'm travelling more now and I'm part of a community of agents who are lovely and really supportive. Training is included and you have a website too which people can access and book without your input, you just get the money for it. We have agents from all over and from all different career backgrounds doing this as it can build up . Message for info.

I went back at 6 months as i couldn't afford it with how high rent has gone in our area. im so jealous of people that got to do the whole year! Our savings are going towards moving, so we couldn't use them to stay with my boy longer, me and my husband and I are bow balancing work and child care so we can save instead of daycare
