Re: June 8th General Election
Quote:
Len McCluskey has been re-elected as Unite's general secretary following a bitter leadership battle.
The result will be seen as a boost for Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.
Mr McCluskey's chief rival Gerard Coyne was seen as the anti-Corbyn candidate and Unite is the party's biggest donor.
Mr Coyne - who was beaten by nearly 6,000 votes - said Unite had to change and claimed he had faced attempts to "bully and intimidate" him, even after voting had closed.
Mr Coyne was suspended from his job as a Unite official on Thursday pending an investigation.

Looks like Jezzer's left wing backer is still firmly in charge. I wonder how this will play with the electorate?
