Where next for fighting unions? Organising the Left

As socialists and trade unionists we believe that militant, coordinated, union action is needed to protect workers in the workplace, to have a voice in society, and to push back this rotten government’s plans for working people and for those that rely on public services. The best way to build effective campaigns is to organise and work together.

That is why the left groups in 5 unions – NEU Left; PCS Left Unity; RMT Broad Left; Unison Time for Real Change; and Unite United Left – have come together to call for a united trade union left. Our groups are made up of reps, activists and campaigners within our respective unions and include a wide range of political views within the left.

Speaker include:

  • John McDonnell MP

  • Libby Nolan (UNISON President)

  • Daniel Kebede (NEU General Secretary)

  • Alex Gordon (RMT President)

  • Fran Heathcoate (PCS President)

  • Matt Gould (Unite EC)

  • Richard Burgon MP

  • Holly Turner (NHS Workers Say No)

In association with Arise - a Festival of Left Ideas.

The launch event starts at 6:30 pm on Tuesday 12th September at the Adelphi Hotel, Ranelagh Street, Liverpool L3 5UL (Google Maps link).
