WE lost our leader, mentor, comrade and great friend on December 27 2024. Phil Davies, former national secretary of the GMB manufacturing section was taken from us too early and very suddenly at his home in Wigan.
He is survived by his wife Christine, daughters Nicola, Natasha and Emma, son Ben and grandchildren Megan, Jamie, Frankie, Shawn, Layla and Erin.
Davies will not only be remembered with love affection and respect by his family but also be remembered in a similar way in many quarters of the labour and trade union movement where he was regarded as being a tenacious and principled officer who cared deeply for the rights of workers, social justice and the trade union movement.
