so following their own interests, then!] End Quote.
Callistemon, many of those grassroots activists attending the last Labour Movement Conference were from various trade unions. In that, many are subject to Gig Economy conditions of work, or zero hours contracts, or live in private rented housing and are subject to eviction on a few weeks notice, or perhaps are subject to all the above.
As they see it no doubt, it makes little difference to them if Britain is in or out of the European Union as life has changed little for them in near two decades.
What those delegates wish to see is a government that speaks and acts for them, hence the call for a General Election as first priority. Therefore, if it is seen as those grassroots delegates pursuing that policy for their own interests, so be it I feel, and I hope they succeed in that.
That may be tough for some at present, but many of those delegates and their families have had it very tough for a long time.
