INVESTMENT - NOT CUTS!
Unite is committed to defending and valuing public services for
all, and the people who work in public services. The ConDem
government has made clear its plans for massive cuts in public
spending over the next 4-5 years that will cut public services
deeply. If successful this will lead to widespread job losses and
service closures that will scar our local communities and damage
the national economy, possibly pushing us back into recession.
There is an alternative - we need economic growth through
investment in public services - not cuts.
Unite value our public services and the people who work to
deliver those services. Imposing a pay cut in real terms and
attacking the pensions of public sector workers are clearly in the
sights of the ConDem government.
That’s why we and the rest of the trade union movement are
determined to fight cuts and attacks on pay, pensions and services
in every workplace, in every local community and nationally. Be a
part of our 'Valuing Public Services' campaign by downloading the
resources we will be adding to this webpage.
If you work in local government we have developed specific
campaign materials for you in our 'People, Pay and
Pensions' campaign.
If you work in the NHS we have developed specific campaign
materials for you in our 'HealthB4Profit'
campaign.
If you work in Higher Education we have developed specific
campaign materials for you in our Defend
Education campaign.
Unite represents approximately 250,000 members employed in
health, education, local and central government and the Royal
Mail.
