Baroness Prosser: Unite actions are 'shocking'

World at One

Available for over a year

Votes are being counted in the election for the general secretary of Britain's biggest union, Unite. Gerard Coyne, the man challenging the current leader Len McCluskey for the top job, has been suspended. Labour peer Baroness Prosser is a former deputy general secretary of the old Transport and General Workers' Union and a supporter of Mr Coyne. She tells 麻豆社 Radio 4's The World at One that she finds it "shocking" that Unite are not explaining why they have suspended Mr Coyne, adding it "looks like something that might go on in North Korea".
