First, the expertise and needs for both groups is quite separate and can only, sensibly, be served by professionals with backgrounds in each speciality.
The implied second position is a “super” union for teachers. This would be a disaster for two reasons. In the first place it would allow the Far Left to exercise influence in a far more effective way than in National Union of Teachers’ affairs.
