    ... from Conservative MP, Alan Shelbrooke.

    A Tory MP, incidentally who has been a member of the Union Unite for a lot of years.

    He has suggested that Trade Union members should be expected to opt IN (currently there is an opt OUT provision) to a political levy every year and they should, by entering their postcode, should have that levy directed to the local branch of the political party of their own choice....

    Now that is a good idea that should be taken up.

    I would add to this a couple of things too.
    Unions should also lose all of the money they get from government immediately. There is no justification for that. Likewise where Union officials are allowed to do Union work on the employer's time, that too should end. Seeing the Unions are strongest in the public sector we are paying for that time which would be better delivering the services to taxpayers that earns their salaries.
