I am extremely concerned about the pressures on school leaders across Wales. Many are having to navigate reform, pupil & staff wellbeing & curriculum change whilst dealing with cuts/tighter budgets. The two are incompatible. I continue to express this in each forum I am present

Teachers in Wales to strike again after rejecting renewed pay offer from @Addysg_Cymraeg @NEUBlaenauGwent @usforthemcymru @NEUCymru @MaryBoustedNEU #strike walesonline.co.uk/news/education…
The NEU must be committed to being an open and inclusive union. If elected as your General Secretary I will ensure all members voices are heard and represented. That is why I as part of my campaign, I am launching 'Ask Niamh' niamhsweeney.online/post/ask-niamh 1/2
Ballot papers are posted for the NEU General Secretary election tomorrow. Union democracy matters. Use your vote! For a strong, inclusive, active union #VoteNiamh
Solidarity with @NEUCymru today. Pleasure to show support on the picket line outside Cardiff High with our TU colleagues. Standing shoulder to shoulder to #ProtectEducation with Debbie Scott #NEU and @shavtaj @walestuc @CymruNAHT
🧵There are two candidates for NEU General Secretary, Daniel and @Niamhms23 For me it's an easy choice, I'll be voting for Niamh, a few years ago she would still have got my vote but I wouldn't have been too concerned if Daniel won But now I do have quite a few concerns
The NEU National Executive like our district officers, reps and members have worked immensely hard on the ballots. This is what they say about the GS election. Vote Daniel 1 for a STRONG, UNITED union that fights and wins on the issues that matter to our members and children.
2/ First off @Niamhms23 is a great candidate, with a track record of winning in the workplace and took a leading roll when Sixth Form colleges beat ballot thresholds prior to the pandemic She's progressive, navigates equalities issues with sensitivity and nuance
3/ I also think she's the better candidate when it comes to the everyday running of the union which is an important part of the General Secretary role that often is forgotten about, they aren't just a leader they also need to manage a large national organisation
4/ Daniels tweet seems to suggest he has the endorsement of the NEU executive, he then follows up by saying 3/4 do, he is the candidate the main factions have put forward, there were three candidates in the Deputy GS election and Niahm beat both the faction candidates
5/ So this time only one candidate is being put forward from the factions, they do not want Niamh to win as she isn't from a factions and was ATL not NUT prior to creation of NEU Despite being the factions choice I question if 3/4 of exec support him considering those I know
6/ It's interesting to see he has chosen to hide replies questioning this. To be honest I'm sick of internal union squabbling and factional fighting, I'm also horrified at a win at all costs mentality that leads to some very questionable campaigning tactics over the years
7/ The idea of bringing the unions together was about combining strength, and while I've met some great former NUT ppl who want to get away from the worst of their previous internal politics, there are others that just want to roll back the clock and make the NEU a larger NUT
