Len McCluskey wins Unite General Secretary with 100,000 votes
101,000 for McCluskey, to 52,000 for Jerry, Les Bayliss (boo hiss!) 46,000, Gail Cartmail 39,000
The really impressive candidate was Jerry Hicks but the union hack has the money and the establishment support.
The lesson is that greens and socialists need to put much more energy into supporting left candidates.
Still there are worse people than Len McCluskey.
Hope to do a lot more work with Jerry though in the future but the lesson is if you are left and imaginative and going to reject the fat cat salary, they other guy or girl will win.
Got got got to organise, a Hicks win would have really changed things in Britain for the better.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
