Len McCluskey, has urged Labour to step up its attacks on UKIP amid signs that an increasing number of union members are warming to its anti-EU, anti-immigration message. The Unite general secretary said there was a feeling of “absolute abandonment” in many northern cities. “There is a divided Britain, a broken Britain,” he said. Ukip was picking up support in working-class areas – in Sunderland, for example – which had caught the Labour leadership by surprise. “Is it true that migrant workers are undercutting pay? Yes. Who’s to blame for that? Not the migrant workers but the greedy bosses who are allowed to get away with it.” At the same time, he called for a more overt assault on UKIP. “Ed Miliband has got to be seen as being on people’s sides and he has got to talk to people in a way that they get the message. That’s one of the advantages that people say Nigel Farage has.” Haha - Miliband - trying to emulate Mr Farage. What a joke!
