The recommended list below, whilst on the NEC has: –
• Prevented thousands of compulsory redundancies ;
• Forced a review of the hated performance management system;
• Defeated the vindictive attempt to smash our union through withdrawal of check-off and ensured the union’s financial stability.
• worked with other unions, campaign groups and the PCS Parliamentary Group to defend our welfare state, campaign for tax justice and many other issues.
The candidates are committed to promoting and alternative to Austerity and will continue to work with other unions, campaign groups and politicians who support our Alternative and step up the fight to build widest anti-austerity alliance in the trade union movement and wider society.
Their priorities continue to be to build maximum unity in action both within and across the union to defend jobs, conditions and services; continue to demand coordinated action across the public sector to defeat the pay freeze alongside campaigns at departmental levels; promote equality, oppose discrimination; defend members in the Commercial Sector; defend union democracy and improve services to branches and reps and build union strength in our workplaces.
If you want a strong union, please vote for the candidates above.
