Lord Barber of Ainsdale (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 10 June 2025

Debate

Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

Will the noble Baroness permit an intervention? As my noble friend Lord Prentis mentioned, there are 48 unions affiliated to the TUC; 13 of them also affiliate, subscribe and contribute to the funding of the Labour Party, and 35 do not. Most of those 35 have a political fund which they use to support their campaigning, but not to make contributions to the Labour Party.
