Right2Change movement dealt a blow as union pulls out

The Right2Change movement has been dealt a blow, after a union that had signed up to the group decided to pull out.

The decision came after Sinn Féin’s surprise announcement earlier in the week that it would be joining the election voting pact.

The executive committee of the Civil Public and Services Union last night voted to step back from the Right2Change initiative which aims to co-ordinate a platform for the left ahead of the general election.
