TSSA leader to meet chair of Commons business committee over Thomas Cook collapse

TRADE union leader Manuel Cortes is today demanding that ministers and business leaders be scrutinised in Parliament for their role in the collapse of travel company Thomas Cook.

The Transport Salaried Staffs’ Association general secretary will meet Commons business committee chair Rachel Reeves this afternoon to discuss the scandal.

He is expected to demand that Ms Reeves haul Thomas Cook CEO Peter Fankhauser in front of the committee to justify the company’s closure, which has cost 9,000 jobs.
