NEW DEAL FOR WORKERS CAMPAIGN WEEKEND 22/23 JUNE
Dear Colleagues,
We know that many of our branches and representatives will be out campaigning for a Labour government and heavily engaging in the work of your local CLPs.
The purpose of this LTB is to announce that the New Deal for Workers Campaigning weekend has been set for June 22nd and 23rd. This weekend will see many activists and trade unions out campaigning for Labour and specifically campaigning on the workers’ rights policies Labour are bringing forward.
As the founders of the New Deal for Workers campaign, it is crucial we see a big turnout of CWU representatives and members across the UK over the course of this weekend.
TULO have created a campaign page so you can volunteer locally in your area. This can be accessed here https://labourunions.org.uk/newdealweekend/
Additionally, branches will be aware that we have three CWU members standing for Parliament. It is absolutely crucial we deliver a massive show of support for these individuals from now until the election, but particularly over the weekend of June 22/23.
On this basis, we are calling for as many volunteers as possible to campaign for the re-election of Tahir Ali MP on Saturday 22nd June in the Birmingham Hall Green constituency. Please contact tahiralicampaigns@gmail.com for more information and timings.
Also on Saturday the 22nd June, we call on CWU members to help elect Lee Barron as the MP for Corby. For more information and timings please contact corbyrural@gmail.com.
And on Sunday 23rd, we will be focusing on a huge turnout in Blackpool South to help re-elect Chris Webb MP. Please contact cawebb@cwu.org for more information and timings.
Delivering the New Deal for Workers is crucial for our members. Part of that strategy has to be putting our members in Parliament.
Please support the campaign weekend on June 22/23. If you have any other questions, please contact jdunn@cwu.org
Yours Sincerely,
Dave Ward
General Secretary
CWU Eastern No5 Branch
