Unite the Union

Yesterday a delegation from Manchester Labour Students travelled to West Bromwich for a Labour Students & Unite the Union meeting about the Unite Working Students Campaign, promoting our links with the Trade Union movement and the excellent relationship Labour Students has with Unite.

Unite the Union is the biggest trade union in the UK with over 2 million members. It was formed through the merger of Amicus and TGQU in 2007.

Unite is trying to encourage students in work to join them to work for better rights and respect at work. As part of this, joining Unite costs only £10 per year for students and is well worth doing. You can join online through the Amicus section of Unite: http://www.amicustheunion.org/default.aspx?page=3136 and find more out about the campaign here: http://www.uniteworkingstudents.org/.

So if you’re a student in working, consider joining Unite today!
