Len is being opposed in this election by Jerry Hicks

Who is Jerry Hicks? Len’s opponent in this election is A POLITICAL OPPORTUNIST who holds no position in Unite and is indebted to the discredited Socialist Workers Party for their support. This election is serious, we must not allow our union to be wrecked or bankrupted by a political clique leaving our members defenceless in the face of a growing political and industrial attack.

This is not scaremongering for votes, it’s the truth!

LEN IS ON YOUR SIDE – FIGHTING FOR YOU l

Len has 44 years experience as a shop steward, local and national officer, Assistant General Secretary and now your General Secretary

l

Len has led difficult, often complex negotiations in every sector of our union as well as with Government

l

l

Len is leading the fight for growth; arguing the case for jobs, investment, job security and dignity at work l

Len stands shoulder to shoulder with our members wherever they are in trouble; BESNA, Honda, London Buses, MMP, BA Len has doubled strike pay to £30 per day from day one, set up a strike fund of £25m and not repudiated a single dispute since becoming your General Secretary – Len is one of us!

IT’S ABOUT MEMBERS WITH LEN – IT’S ALL ABOUT YOU!

“Don’t be fooled by the rhetoric and false promises of Len’s opponent in this election – he is a political opportunist supported by the Socialist Workers Party” Tony Woodhouse: Chair, Executive Council Mark Lyon: Vice Chair, Executive Council
