The troubles Jeremy Corbyn’s anti-Trident stance are fuelling with Labour’s union paymasters were underlined as the GMB union announced a conference this month to highlight how thousands of defence jobs depend upon it.
GMB general secretary Sir Paul Kenny said: “It is time for the real voice of working people in our defence industries to be heard in this debate in the Labour Party.
“This is the voice of men and women in some of the most highly skilled manufacturing jobs in the UK.
“It is time that senior politicians in the Labour Party listened to the working people outside Westminster.”

STRICTLY COME DANCING'S Giovanni Pernice cutely referred to Georgia May Foote as his "amore", when he wished her a happy 25th birthday this afternoon.   The dancer took to Instagram to post a steamy kissing snap of the pair, who met when they were partnered up for the BBC One dancing show last year.
