A row is growing over what constitutes ‘volunteering’
The TUC seemed delighted this morning that their members could use the three days to volunteer for union activities.
A Conservative spokesman has tried to kaibosh this saying that acceptable volunteering “definitely won’t include trade unions”.
The TUC criticises the idea of an “approved state list of volunteering opportunities”.
So what does count as volunteering and who can you actually help on your days off?
