Puts into words how many of us feel, a second term of this current administration will be catastrophic for our members.

Nominate and Vote for Simon Dubbins

There will be many posts regarding the GS election in Unite the Unión. Here’s mine.

As a member and tutor for many years, I have been astonished by the leadership of Sharon Graham. Lost evidence regarding the behaviour of her husband’s conduct before and after she promoted him.

Anti-union behaviour following numerous grievances raised by staff and officers.

Fines for not producing accounts.

The squandering of a massive strike fund.

To never account for the millions spent on organising – how much of the members’ money paid out to develop her own army of devotees?

Taking credit for the hard work and successes of others?

As a trade unionist of some 60 years, there has never in my life been a more depressing time – something has to change.

Simon Dubbins is an extremely capable and honest trade unionist with an impeccable record of commitment to working people. He gets my vote, and I hope yours too. Not to elect Simon will see the demise of my union – without reasonable influence politically or industrially. The cult of the individual has no place in the lives of our members.-
