As Deputy General Secretary I've worked to maintain
good working relationships right across the union.
We now need to build on the unity I have helped to
create.
Over 200 named supporters (see www.johnfray.org),
believe that the NUJ still needs my experience to
make sure that the union is always focused on our
ability to help members whenever they need it.
The other three candidates may have
many good qualities, but they lack real experience
of the work they will be expected to carry out as
DGS. Ask yourself this: if you have a problem do you
want someone to advise you with virtually no experience,
or a professional trade union official who has dealt
with employment problems for over twenty years and
has successfully negotiated across all sectors of
the union?
I'm proud that I've represented
thousands of NUJ members collectively and individually
and that I have been an active trade unionist all
my working life.
