Unison Conference: Prentis warns of vote Leave dangers
Brexit will threaten pensions, jobs and services, delegates told
WORKERS should vote to stay in the EU to defeat an “ugly public mood” and threats to jobs, pensions and services, the leader of Britain’s biggest public-sector union said yesterday.
Unison general secretary Dave Prentis used his keynote address to his union’s conference to warn that a vote to leave would put at risk “one of our most cherished national institutions” — the NHS.
He also called on Labour MPs to swing behind Jeremy Corbyn to defeat the Tories, who will be “friends reunited” after Thursday’s vote.
