I agree with you. BTW Brexit party would've been illegal in Germany,law requires all party executives and party leader to be democratically elected,the party to have members and all donations to be public. Brexit party has enormous ratio of PayPal traffichttps://twitter.com/Turloughc/status/1151861673927593984 …

As opposed to union donations , therefore indebted to the union
-
Unions founded the party and represent people not wealthy individuals or companies.

In 2017
#Labour received £55.8m from members, donations & the unions (Guardian). £10m more than the#Conservatives. Unite was the largest Union donor. Until we change the system there will always problems. Am I correct in thinking that only#Parliament can change this?#catch22Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

So no union funding either. Makes sense
-
No. Unions are people not companies or individual wealthy people.
-
Yeah right so mccluskey doesn’t have a greater influence over labour policy than a random labour voter. Mmm don’t believe you
-
I, as a union member, get to vote - like when there’s been leadership contests. It’s not the head of my union that decides for me where my vote goes.
-
Oh and don’t really care what you ‘believe’. People who use that word effectively are admitting to not ‘knowing’.

I assure you that unite union give a bigger single donation to labour than any individual tory donor. Is there really any difference between the two. Instead of a donor dictating policy we have a handful of people at the top of a union dictating policy.

Does that include trade unions?!
-
No, because unions are people not businesses - i.e. just like political parties they represent ordinary people not companies or wealthy individuals. With
@UKLabour it’s also worth remembering it was founded by the unions. -
Yes... Exactly why I opt out of any union funding the Labour Party
-
Then you opt out of having a vote when it comes up. More fool you.
