Unite the biggest union in the UK with some 1.4million members will announce on Wednesday it has a new leader in Len McCluskey aptly knick named Red Len due to his involvement with the Labour government.
It will be the first General Secretary to lead the Union as a sole leader since the Union began in 2007. Standing down will be Tony Woodley and Derek Simpson who have become household names after the BA strike chaos that affected travellers this summer.
Mr McClukey stated there would be no more blank cheques for New Labour and he would seek to reclaim the Labour party for their views. He went on to talk about his plan to unite the union and focus on combating the devastation the new government is unleashing on the UK workplaces.
