Unions 'mobilised for election'
Gordon Brown
Mr Brown has refused to rule out an autumn election
The trade unions have been put on standby for an imminent general election announcement, it is reported.

The Times newspaper says Labour has asked the biggest unions to pay next year's party affiliation fees now - raising about Â£6m upfront.

It also says unions have been asked to make their call centres available to the party this weekend.

During Labour's conference last week Mr Brown repeatedly refused to rule out an autumn election.

I heard this from our Area Rep last night. The CWU give that shower over Â£400.000 per annum. Bloody mental to pay someone to kick you in the knackers. I suppose Billy knows what he's doing though.

Please don't criticise - it is an illness - it is called masochism - it can be cured - de-selection.

As an adjunct - Gordy was reported to have met the leaders of the "two most powerful unions" - guess who WASN'T there - no no - only the one guess.
