I think some of these Union leaders need closer scrutiny.

I mentioned Jack Dromey recently (who usurped women-only shortlists to get himself elected to Parliament) - AFTER his Union (Unite) had "donated" £1 million to Labour !

"The Labour General Secretary at that time Peter Watt later revealed that the union Unite had given £1 million in donations on assumption of the safe seat of Wolverhampton North East being given to Dromey".

Take a closer look at his background ... parlicularly "Cash for Honours" -

On 15 March 2006, in the Cash for Peerages scandal, Dromey spoke of not being aware, despite being party treasurer, of £3.5 million worth of loans made to the Labour Party in 2005 by three individuals who were subsequently nominated for life peerages (Chai Patel, Sir David Garrard and Barry Townsley).

and "Donorgate" -

Dromey was caught up in a further financial scandal in 2007 as he was responsible for party finances, which included more than £630,000 in illegal donations from David Abrahams. Dromey again claimed to know nothing of the donations, with critics wondering why he hadn't examined the issue more closely [3][4] His wife, Harriet Harman was also caught up in the affair, as her staff had solicited and accepted illegal donations totalling £5,000
