Credit Card trade unionism
Article from yesterday's Observer, about union's moving away from 'credit-card' recruitment.
I'm quoted in it, but that's not the reason why its interesting. Reason it is interesting is that I think it shows that unions have woken up to the fact that 'cheap' insurance deals, credit cards and will-writing services are not the future of trade unionism...people don't join unions for pet insurance (well most people don't!).
Perhaps unsurprisingly what they want is good old-fashioned effective unions that deliver in the workplace.

Totally agree brother.
Some unions run insurance schemes that are in trouble,but do the membership know?I hope so.
Saying that though I hold a Union Credit Card.
I belong to a pro-active union,now ,we fell by the wayside,but a new broom is sweeping clean ..As is said The past we inherit. The future we build!!!
