Yorkshire

On Saturday I crossed the Pennines to give an NEC report to the Yorkshire Regional Meeting - a great honour for someone from the Red Rose County :-)

I gave a report on NEC events over the last year with a special emphasis on the dogged defence of the Trade Union link we have put up.

I also stressed the need for policies to tackle the problems facing us today - the need for action on agency and temporary workers, tackling climate change and supporting manufacturing industry in a global climate - to name but three.
The meeting was well attended and it was good to meet many of the members who came leading the fight for labour in Yorkshire.
