The Tory argument that Labour is in the pockets of the unions has been called out by Zarah Sultana.

It is true Labour gets a lot of money of from the union movement

During the 2019 general election campaign, the Labour Party registered donations of £5.4 million, of which just over £5 million came from trade unions. It also received £160,000 from individuals and £200,000 from companies.
