Unions walking a tightrope with ‘right-wing’ Labour government, FBU leader says
Union figures weigh in on Starmer's government at Morning Star's TUC fringe event

UNIONS must walk a tight-rope dealing with a right-wing Labour government, a senior trade unionist has said.
TUC president and Fire Brigades Union general secretary Matt Wrack made the statement at the Morning Star’s fringe meeting at the TUC Congress today.
