MANDELSON OUTLINES UNION RELATIONSHIP
Peter Mandelson has told the Trades
Union Congress that Government
relations with the unions are good but
"not too close for comfort".
The Trade and Industry Secretary told
delegates at the Conference in
Blackpool that he believed in unions.
But he said Labour and the unions
should not be "in hock to one another".
Mr Mandelson also ruled out reports he
had decided to sell off the Post Office
and said a review was under way.
