Momentum: 'No plans' for Unite-Momentum affiliation

Unite's acting general secretary, Gail Cartmail, has said there are "no plans" for the Unite union to affiliate with Momentum.

Momentum's Jon Lansman was reportedly taped saying that if Len McCluskey was re-elected as Unite general secretary, the union would affiliate to his group rather than just to Labour.

Ms Cartmail told Radio 4's The World at One that there had been "no conversations and no proposal" about this affiliation.
