PM’S SNUB TO SIX MILLION WORKERS
Cameron too busy entertaining celeb chums to meet TUC leader O’Grady
DAVID CAMERON was accused yesterday of showing “total contempt” for working people after rolling out the red carpet at Downing Street for celebrities — but snubbing TUC leader Frances O’Grady.
The Morning Star can reveal that Ms O’Grady has not been offered a date for a meeting with the Prime Minister more than NINE months since requesting talks on the Trade Union Bill.
Mr Cameron’s refusal to meet the representative of Britain’s six million trade union members comes while his government rushes new restrictions on strikes through Parliament.
