Leeds No. 1 AGM

Was guest speaker with Pete Keelyside at my branch AGM yesterday. Also presented former branch secretary Dave Walton and retired area rep Pete Jubb with honorary membership of the branch. It was a bitter sweet occasion. We seem to be losing a lot of CWU stalwarts. From what was said it appears that our reps are coming under a lot of pressure from management and many are throwing on sick with stress. if you've got any evidence of this please let me know. On a lighter note we went to a local pub on Briggate after the meeting. my members managed to drink it dry of Tetleys and John Smiths bitter. I don't touch alcohol myself but my members do make me proud.
