Now -read the book!

Here is a link to my memoirs which, if you are a glutton for punishment, you can purchase online at https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/an-obscure-footnote-in-trade-union-history.
Men fight and lose the battle, and the thing that they fought for comes about in spite of their defeat, and when it comes turns out not to be what they meant, and other men have to fight for what they meant under another name. (William Morris - A Dream of John Ball)

Debating the pay offer in the health service

An interesting and informative debate is going on at the healthactivists email discussion group as active trade unionists in health service unions consider the current three year pay offer.

I was disappointed to hear that there is some concern within UNISON about the informed intervention in the debate by UNITE NEC member Gill George.

The interests of our members are now in the widest possible debate so that members can make an informed decision in the consultative ballot, a timetable for which is awaited...

Update on 1 May - thanks to the ever informative healthactivists group I understand that
the ballot will run from 16 May to 6 June, with anyone in membership by 3 June entitled to vote.
