Unison letter calls on leadership to act on Labour's leaked report

NEARLY 1,000 Unison members have written to general secretary Dave Prentis to urge him to respond to the internal Labour report leaked at the weekend.

The open letter, co-signed by 930 members, including 23 on the national executive committee, calls on the union to “address the underlying discriminatory attitudes for any named individuals who hold positions in Unison.”

It describes the undermining of former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn — who some models put just 2,227 votes short of forming a government in 2017 — as “unforgivable.”
