[QUOTE=Flyboy;34973584]Oh come on, are you seriously trying to tell us that your thirty pence a week was in danger of being passed on to the Labour party? Do you think that they would reduce your dues and segregate the remaining amount, just so they could levy your subscription to the Labour party. I think you need a new tinfoil hat, the one you are using is starting wear out.

actually the levy is ADDED to the normal dues and a member has to opt in if he wants to pay them ,my argument is that i don't trust unions to ONLY use the EXTRA levy for donations
