The union advised the scots to vote no in the referendum,,that'll have the same effect as Cameron clegg and the ginger guy coming to scotland To tell the scots to vote no lol.

What good does supporting the labour party do? Is it just like an entry fee for the glitterati to be invited to dinners and functions and appear to be important because it certainly doesn't appear to be of any benefit to the members as a whole.
