ALWAYS RED
Len McCluskey is the standout trade unionist of his era. Head of the giant Unite union for more than a decade, he is a unique and powerful figure on the political stage. Witty and sharp, McCluskey delivers a powerful intervention, issuing a manifesto for the future of trade unionism and urging the left not to lose sight of class politics.
“Len tells his story as only he can: forthright, confident and witty. He is an amazing and unusual trade union leader who manages to encompass industrial, social and international campaigning all at the same time. His support for struggles all around the world, as well as for democratising the Labour Party and injecting the politics of social transition into our movement, will leave a lasting mark and legacy. —Jeremy Corbyn
“Pulls no punches. An explosive account of life at the top of the Labour Party from Britain’s most important trade union leader.” —Kevin Maguire
“Len’s life story is an inspiration. He lives and breathes solidarity. He is a true workers’ leader.” —Maxine Peake
“Len reminds us what—and who—we’re fighting for. He knows his own mind and isn’t afraid to speak it.” —Zarah Sultana
“The riveting story of a lifetime spent fighting for workers, with lessons for all of us. Len learned the value of solidarity working on the Liverpool docks and it has never left him.” —Dave Ward
