Browns declares war on trade unions

Well, it didn't take long. Less than 24 hours into his official Labour leadership, Brown is already on the war path against the trade unions. Brown wants to end the block vote at Labour conference - and the unions' right to put forward contemporary and emergency motions. Instead, there will be "general debates" by members.
John McDonnell MP - 'This is a real kick in the teeth for all those trade union general secretaries who loyally nominated Brown to the leadership of the party.'
