Union boss Len McCluskey: Labour’s policies are our policies

Len McCluskey has used his message to union members to say that Labour party policies are “our policies”.

The Conservatives have criticised the amount of funding Labour party gets from unions each year claiming that the party has received over a £100,000 a day from the unions for each day of the election campaign.

“The Labour party is our party. We built it, to serve us, the people. Never forget, the rich and powerful have their party, the Tories.

“And Ukip is no friend – they are frauds, charlatans who will roll back every advance won by working people.

“One May 7, we can vote for a government that will build homes, give our kids hope, save our NHS and attack the evil of zero hours, hire and fire working.

“These are our policies. These are the changes that you have been fighting for these five long years. They are now within our grasp.”
