Len McCluskey

General Secretary, Unite

Unite, the largest trade union in the UK, wields significant influence in British politics through both its financial support of the Labour Party and its 3 million-strong membership. Having threatened in 2014 to disaffiliate Unite from Labour and set up a rival party, depending on the outcome of the 2015 general election, general secretary Len McCluskey has since held up his alliance with Labour despite their loss. Current Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s left-wing positioning seems to resonate more closely with McCluskey’s views.
