Britain's Labour Party was created from the trade unions and it
still gets most of its money from them. But Labour’s leader Ed
Miliband - a man who owes his job to the union vote - now wants
to loosen those ties. Hardtalk speaks to Paul Kenny, the leader
of one of the UK's biggest unions, the GMB. He says Labour is in
danger of losing 90% of his union's funding. So what would a
change mean for the Labour Party, the unions and working class
representation in Britain?
