From this morning's Daily Mirror.....
United behind Simpson
Kevin Maguire 18/02/2009
Unite co-leader Derek Simpson stood up for striking power station construction workers despite legal threats.
He recognised the dangers posed to British workers by hostile European Court rulings before other union chiefs.
Simpson's also at the forefront of the battle to get Labourre-elected and keep the Tories out of power.
Unite under his leadership's taking the fight to David Cameron in key marginal seats that will decide Britain's fate.
Which is precisely why the Tories are cheering on the motley crew in bed with Rupert Murdoch to tear Unite apart.
Conservatives will be the ultimate winners of the chaos if Simpson isn't re-elected as leader of Unite's Amicus section.
I tend to stay out of union elections but this contest is too important to ignore. Ballot papers have gone out this week and I agree with Mirror colleague Paul Routledge.
If I had a vote, mine would also go to Derek Simpson.
