JACK JONES AND THE TRANSPORT AND GENERAL WORKERS UNION

That this House expresses its condolences to the family of Jack Jones, former General Secretary of the Transport and General Workers Union, the strongest working-class organisation the UK has ever seen, with more than two million men and women united to secure a better life for all, both at home and internationally; and believes the UK has lost the greatest trades unionist of the entire post-war era, a man whose name will be forever associated with the finest achievements and highest values of the trades union movement.
