Unite: West Midlands police authority delay decision on privatisation

Unite, Britain's biggest union, has welcomed the West Midlands police authority's decision to delay a crucial vote on whether to proceed with privatisation in order to allow public consultation on the plans.

Unite: Tax avoidance, strike breaking, human rights abuses: The organisations bidding to profit from West Midlands police privatisation

Unite, Britain's biggest union, has lifted the lid on the activities and record of some of the organisations attempting to profit from our police service (see notes to editors).

Unite: "Beecroft is a venture capitalist who profits from sub prime loans to needy people. He hasn't got a single idea how to create jobs"

Unite has branded the Beecroft report 'the worst attack on our employment rights in a generation' and has urged the Business Secretary, Vincent Cable to do everything in his power to stop the recommendations ever becoming law.
