Why the left is supporting Len McCluskey for General Secretary

UNITED LEFT, which holds a strong majority on UNITE's Executive Council, is backing a General Secretary election to give Len McCluskey a new fiveyear mandate. This will give us time to complete the merger and make UNITE "fit for purpose".

This is an astute political decsion by United Left to maximise Len's term of office and embed the left in our new Union.
