THE role of RMT is to provide inspiration for all workers in opposing fascist elements in society, the union’s young members declared at its Hull AGM today.

Alongside the union’s main conference, young members have been attending a wide-ranging course on RMT’s structures, political education and taking inspiration from the international socialist movement. 

Looking ahead to the forthcoming general election, young members’ chair Sarah Cundy said: “The RMT should have a really leading role in the political voice of the trade unions, which it does at the moment, and it needs to continue to do.
