GMB: We're coming for bad employers
GMB general secretary Tim Roache

TIM ROACHE has labelled the right-wing Taxpayers’ Alliance pressure group the “Tax Dodgers’ Alliance,” as he warned dodgy employers and the Tory government: “We’re coming for you.”

Speaking to delegates at the GMB annual conference in Brighton yesterday, the union’s general secretary said that “bosses may have power when workers are divided but, when we stand together, our might is absolutely unstoppable.”

He congratulated the union’s membership for putting a “flag in the sand” over various industrial disputes over the past year, mentioning the ongoing struggles against subcontracting giant ISS and British Gas management among others.
