The five candidates for the Labour Leadership - Diane Abbott, Ed Balls, Andy Burnham, David Milband and Ed Miliband - agreed to attend a Question Time session on Friday 2 July in their bid to secure the UNISON nomination.
Each candidate made a presentation and then took questions from an audience of public sector workers drawn from across Britain.
The event was held in Leeds as part of the union's annual Labour Link forum, where delegates discussed how best to take UNISON's policies into the Labour party.
