Politics for the Many is the trade union campaign for political reform. If you are involved in a trade union, join us.
We believe change comes through people joining together – in unions, in parties, in campaigns – to say ‘enough is enough’.
In 2019, we commemorated the Peterloo massacre that saw working people lose their lives fighting for the democratic rights we have today. Today, there is a new democratic frontier for trade unions in Britain: reforming Westminster’s creaking establishment.
