GMB NHS members in massive rejection of pensions deal

 

22 May GMB members in the NHS have decisively rejected the governments pensions offer, delivering an enormous 95.6% rejection in a ballot, the result of which was announced today on the GMB website

 

 

 

This vote, alongside the rejection by Unite and Unison health workers indicates a decisive majority are opposed to the pensions proposals of the government.

 

In the light of this rejection the leaderships of Unison, Unite and GMB in the NHS should urgently meet to discuss co-ordinated industrial action to defeat the pensions proposals.

 

The NSSN would like to congratulate the members and activists in the GMB who campaigned for this comprehensive rebuff of the governments attack on pensions.
