UNISON general secretary Christina McAnea told conference delegates today that it was in their hands to make a better world after 14 years of Tory assaults on public services.
She said that “it was a great time to be meeting, in the middle of a general election campaign,” as this gave the union a chance to put an end to 14 years of disastrous and divisive Tory rule.
Unison needs to maintain unity after “14 years of Tory chaos and cuts,” Ms McAnea added.
