Ed Miliband speech – UNISON reaction

Commenting on Ed Miliband’s speech to Labour Conference in Liverpool today, UNISON General Secretary, Dave Prentis, said:

“Ed’s passionate speech hit the right buttons. It showed he genuinely cares about Labour values, public services and our great NHS, values that will resonate with the people of this country. His plans would help to offer young people hope – with jobs and higher education.

“He recognised the role that every working person plays in creating wealth in our economy – and that includes public sector workers. And putting fairness back at the heart of sustainable economic growth is key to creating the kind of society we want to leave to our children”.
