Union tells Corbyn to back Trident
Jeremy Corbyn has a responsibility to back Labour's current policy of renewing the UK's nuclear deterrent, says the boss of the GMB union.
Tim Roache, whose union represents many defence sector workers, argues it would not be democratic to ignore the party policy, despite Mr Corbyn's long time opposition to Trident.
He added that he would be balloting all GMB members on whether they wanted to support Mr Corbyn in the upcoming Labour leadership election.
