McDonnell welcomes union’s support for Labour ‘change campaign’
16th June 2009
In his address to Unison conference, Dave Prentis (General Secretary) has today called for his union to suspend all Constituency Development Plans only to work with MPs and to support candidates who back the union’s policies to fight for a manifesto that excludes privatisation.
John McDonnell MP, LRC Chair, said:
“I welcome Dave Prentis’s speech today at Unison conference. It is an indication of the revulsion within rank-and-file trade unionists at the Government policies of privatisation.
“We will be seeking a meeting with Dave Prentis about his support for the ‘change campaign’ within Labour and how we can mobilise for the policies we all want from a Labour Government.”
