Trade Union Bill

Proceeding contribution from Chris Stephens (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 September 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Trade Union Bill.

That is exactly what it is designed to do. This attack is to weaken the rights of trade union members. When it comes to political funds, it should be up to the trade union members to decide. If members have issues about who trade unions are funding, it is up to them to organise themselves and to take up the matter with their trade unions—just as I always do. When my union funds a campaign that I might not necessarily support, I am told, quite rightly, that it should be up to us to organise.
