Unions warn Labour must 'get own house in order' as it launches campaign for a new deal for workers
Movement must turn outwards for progressive change and stop persecuting its own, trade unionists say
Sir Keir Starmer says ordinary people need a new deal, launching a campaign the CWU said is 'long overdue' but must be led by unions

LABOUR is set to launch a campaign for a “new deal” for working people today aiming to “make Britain the best place to work.”

Following the loss of working-class votes to the Tories in recent elections, the party’s campaign aims to start rebuilding trust among disillusioned voters in former “red wall” constituencies.

Labour’s campaign outlines five “principles of good work:” job security, quality jobs, a fairer economy, opportunity for all, and work that pays.
