THE next Labour government should commit to reforming taxation so that the wealthiest “pay their fair share” and public services are “properly funded,” trade unionists urged today.

Bringing forward a composition on the union-led New Deal for Workers campaign at the Labour Party conference in Liverpool, the CWU and FBU unions said that workers need immediate change amid growing levels of inequalities in society.

“Outside the workplace, our society is literally crumbling and public services are beyond breaking point,” the unions said in the composition.
