GMB Union has responded to the Prime Minister's speech at TUC congress today [Tuesday]
Gary Smith, GMB General Secretary, said:
“The Government has a huge job on to clean up the mess after 14 years of chaos and misrule from the Conservatives.
“One toxic Tory legacy was the undervaluing of public sector workers. Paying them properly is both the right thing to do and will help get our economy moving.
“We have seen some positive action from the new government, with above inflation pay awards already in place. But, GMB’s public sector members are clear: this must be a start and not a finish.”
