National UNISON Labour Link Elections


Back from holiday (by coincidence in Wales, Scotland and Yorkshire) and I have been asked about my post supporting Rachel Voller as London’s representative, from other UNISON Labour link members, about the regional elections elsewhere. Done a little bit of digging. Of course, some excellent representatives to National Committee have been re-elected unopposed and also in some regions there is a simple fight between good comrades who all put “members first”.

However, I would like to plug: James Black in Yorkshire region, Margaret Wilkinson in Wales and Alan Cowan in Scotland. The ballot papers were sent out on the 20 August and you have until the 14 September to return them. So, please encourage any UNISON Labour Link members who live in the UNISON regions below to vote for:-

Rachel Voller (Greater London)

Margaret Wilkinson (Wales)

Alan Cowan (Scotland)

James Black (Yorkshire)

(BTW– I was really on "holiday" in these regions during the last few weeks – honest! I did have some interesting meetings though - Check “Wild Wales” and I’ll do something on Edinburgh and Sedbergh in next few days)
