UNISON members have voted overwhelmingly in favour of taking industrial action to protect their pensions in the biggest ballot we have ever held. My personal thanks to everyone who participated in getting that Yes vote.
Each service group executive – local government, health, police and justice, community, higher education and water, environment and transport – unanimously agreed to go ahead with strike action on 30 November, co-ordinated with other TUC unions. That has been authorised by the union's industrial action committee.
Despite statements in Parliament, we have not yet received an offer on pensions, but we are willing to negotiate any time, any place.
