In the real democratic Labour Movement family (not you-know-who's) it seems sometimes that at this time of year we have to spend all our time organising to fight elections and there is not enough time to do practically anything else!
The Union and Labour Party AGM season may be finally finishing but in UNISON we still have the General Secretary election and the Service Group Elections coming up.
Never mind the local Council elections and the all important national election campaigns.
Anyway, I am also standing in to be the London member for the new “Community and Voluntary” UNISON Service Group Executive (SGE).
Ballot papers due out on 12 April.
Details of all the other SGE UNISON candidates who (IMO) are supporters of "light and reason" to follow.
My own personal blog. UNISON NEC member for Housing Associations & Charities, HA Convenor, London Regional Council Officer & Chair of its Labour Link Committee. Newham Cllr for West Ham Ward, Vice Chair of Local Authority Pension Fund Forum, Pension trustee, Housing & Safety Practitioner. Centre left and proud member of Labour movement family. Strictly no trolls please. Promoted by Luke Place on behalf of J.Gray, Newham Labour Group, St Luke’s Community Centre, E16 1HS.

All the best John.
We need more people like you at the forefront of the TU movement.
People who are not afraid to do what's right by the members, and stand up when it is necessary to do so, and at the same time don't treat members like political pawns to bring about the 'revolution'.
Your a good man! I'm sure you will win.
Mr Centre-Left
Cheers Mister Centre Left
