The independent auditor hired to find out where members' money really went found "unusual relationships"... Here's what we said previously about the link between the old UL regime and the Flanagan Brothers. therealunite.com/2025/04/07/t...

"Former members of senior management appear to have been motivated to commit fraud, and their dominant personalities and a weak control environment facilitated opportunities to commit fraud."

How did the old UL regime create a what independent auditors call a "pervasive fraud environment"? It starts at the top, and it was enabled by the same gang who are trying to smear the GS today. therealunite.com/2025/06/09/a...

This independent auditors' report outlines a spree of corruption by the old UL leadership at Unite. Now that the truth is coming to light, will the current UL faction finally stop their mischief and help clean up the mess their mates made? therealunite.com/2025/06/09/a...

The UL faction knew what auditors would uncover: the old regime was corrupt to the core. So they did everything they could think of to blow smoke and stop this report. Wasted members' money and union time on lawsuits, even smeared our GS. What will they do now?

Dubbins Travel Agency: what goes on in Vegas … It’s do or die time for the UK steel industry. Trump’s tariffs, Chinese owner Jingye threatening closure of Scunthorpe, which finally helped push the government to step in at British St…

With UK steel getting squeezed from all sides, makes sense to forge solidarity with steel unions. But when a delegation headed to Vegas, not one person on the trip was a steel worker or even an officer involved in steel negotiations. Some big UL names went tho.

United Left block conference motion on alleged corruption Another day, another dollar. Or in this case just another act of open sabotage, as the UL campaign of desperate internal manoeuvrings continues… This time the UL “and their allies&#8221…

There's tens of millions in members' money missing, but the UL wants to keep any discussion of corruption under wraps. Try as they might to lie doggo and hope it all blows over, the truth will out. therealunite.com/2025/04/28/u...

Farce! “UL Supporters Group” waste members’ money on failed legal challenge So the “UL Supporters’ Group” have had their day in court, in a desperate attempt to unseat Chair Andy Green, and lost on every count. The problem is, it’s the members who w…

It's us the members who will foot the bill for the ridiculous lawsuit filed by the "UL supporters group", but here's the real kicker. They knew all along that they needed 2/3 to remove a chair, and Andy Green had text messages to prove it. What a farce. therealunite.com/2025/04/23/f...

Its purpose? To distract from allegations of corruption under the previous regime and the release of the interim report into those allegations. Time to go.

Hearing UL supporters group lost on EVERY count at the High Court today. Andy Green stays as Chair of the EC, just as the Union told them would happen. Instead, they ignored the legal advice and spent hundreds of thousands of pounds of the members money on another factional game 🧵

What a surprise! “United Left” have united with The Sun to attack bin dispute Pathetic. But just as, by now, we’d sadly come to expect. After getting their “Unite sources” quotes in The Times and the BBC last week (see previous post), the UL and their &#822…

Looks like the UL is uniting with the far-right Murdoch press to undermine Unite workers and smear our union. This rag has all the same rubbish you heard from the "UL supporters group". The same made-up numbers. The same tired attacks. Pathetic.

“United Left” show their true colours attacking Birmingham strikers You’d think there would be limits. Smears and misogynist shitposts against Unite’s first female general secretary, including briefing stories against her in The Sun? That seems all par …

Not content with shitposts and smears against Unite's GS, the Len and Howard gang is now trying to undermine striking bin workers in Birmingham. Shameful to see these scumbags attacking Unite workers while wrapping themselves in a fake red flag.

Talk about greedflation: £1.3 million for drilling holes in walls? With the Unite “alleged corruption” report about to hit the streets, the Len and Howard gang (also known as “UL” supporters group) have powered into PANIC mode, tossing arou…

Word is the "corruption report" is about to hit the streets. Strangely, the completely innocent Len & Howard Gang over at the UL is throwing around legal letters like confetti. If there's nothing to see here, why all the fuss?

In the weeds: Screaming into the void… Stamping feet, waving arms, pointing fingers! Throwing shit at the wall. Schoolyard politics. And game playing at Executive Council meetings… Such is the way of the United Left (UL) and their…

Ever since Sharon Graham was elected, the last remnants of the old regime have been trying to throw sand in the works. Obviously, it’s a matter of pure coincidence that two former UL faction leaders are now embroiled in allegations of corruption…

In the spotlight: Howard Beckett, Frank Harrold, and the Swansea call centre When Howard Beckett’s office at Unite HQ was raided in April 2022, as part of the live investigation into bribery, fraud and money-laundering, it was South Wales Police at the door. Why? Beca…

How did an ambulance-chasing solicitor, with a multi-million fortune and record of misconduct (ripping off miners), get to pass himself off as Great Hero of the Left? And why was Len the only witness called by Beckett to support his failed tribunal claim?

The lowdown: Blackhorse and the “unwitting” UL company directors The Black Horse is a boarded up pub in Birmingham, sitting empty and unloved on a corner between Unite’s offices and the Aloft hotel. After the hotel building costs soared to over £100 millio…

"Blackhorse" is the holding company Len and his friends set up to pay the Flanagans for the Birmingham hotel scam. Now multiple UL members who sit on the EC want you to believe they didn't know they were directors of this shell company for years? Sure.

Birmingham hotel independently valued at £29 million, over £60million less than the United Left regime told us. So, we now we have confirmation from EC members who actually attend meetings, of the truth behind the valuation of the Birmingham hotel. And what a surprise…it doesn’t look good. When B…

"When Beckett was interim Finance Director under McCluskey and the UL EC, he gave a valuation of the Birmingham hotel, as being worth over £90 million." 👀

But if you ask the UL, there's nothing to see here.

McCluskey's mates were just charged with conspiracy to commit bribery. Yes, the same mates who built the Birmingham hotel that's mysteriously £56 million in the red. Yet the UL is adamant that there was absolutely no corruption involved. Right. therealunite.com/2025/03/22/t...

So who is the real Howard Beckett? Socialist messiah? One time United Left leadership hopeful? Or, an Ambulance-chasing, multi-millionaire lawyer facing a police investigation into possible fraud and money laundering? therealunite.com/2025/03/21/i...

While United Left supporters are pouring scorn on allegations of corruption, a source who saw the finance report tells us that the scale of the “adjustment” for the Birmingham hotel debacle is over £56 million. If no corruption, where did that money go??? therealunite.com/2025/03/20/t...

There's been a lot said about Unite's finances by those with a political agenda. Here's what we know, straight from sources who attended the EC: even despite the hotel disaster, the union’s underlying finances are in an excellent position. Read the truth: therealunite.com/2025/03/19/t...
