Communication workers urged to back Remain vote

POST and telecoms workers should campaign for “a reformed European Union which puts working people at the heart of what it does,” the Communication Workers Union is expected to agree today.

The union’s executive will recommend that delegates vote to support the Remain campaign while recognising that the EU is “far from perfect.”

An emergency motion due to be heard this morning asserts that a vote to leave would “leave a number of basic employment rights under immediate threat from the government.”
