FRANCES O’GRADY lashed out today at the “new oligarchy” running Britain and called for a Jeremy Corbyn government.
The TUC general secretary criticised the “self-styled new bad boys” around Prime Minister Boris Johnson as she addressed delegates at the Brighton conference.
She said: “They think they are Westminster’s answer to the Sex Pistols: but, in truth, they’re just the bully-boys of the British elite.”
