UNITE’S new leader Sharon Graham has secured 43 pay deals worth more than £25 million in her first 100 days in the job.

The deals have benefited around 12,000 predominantly low-paid workers and include big, above inflation wins.

Among them are the 11 per cent rise for Bexley refuse staff and up to 30 per cent for some lorry drivers.
