Hayden Phillips

Hayden Phillips has published his report on party funding. The worrying part of his report is that he continues to query the role of trade union donations to the party. Negotiations are about to be entered into - with Jack Straw leading for us.

Jack is a very astute politician with a good grasp of the issues so we need to leave it to him now but my position remains clear. We need to reject any threat to the link between the Party and Trades Unionists.
