The government is currently legislating to grant 6 months maternity leave at full pay to ministers who give birth, in time for the Attorney General to be eligible (who is due very soon). This recognition that current statutory maternity pay is insufficient is a great step forward, and the improved terms should now be extended to all women.
I have created a petition to show support for this. Please sign and share as widely as possible.
