About the Workers of England Union

Until 2009, the workers of England did not have a protective voice to fight exclusively for their rights in the workplace. While the British TUC, Scottish TUC and Welsh TUC represent their respective regions, England’s focus has remained on Britain, the UK and previously EU initiatives. It’s time for a change.


Introducing the Workers of England Union

The Workers of England union is the protective voice for England’s workforce. We want to be your protective voice. Responsible trade unions play a vital role in maintaining living standards, and we are dedicated to addressing the specific challenges faced by workers in England.


Why We Exist

We have experienced economic upheaval—recession, bailouts, a housing crisis, job losses, pension shortfalls, political rhetoric and empty promises from successive governments. The workforce of England deserves better. It’s time for a new approach, for clear and fresh thinking, and for principles we all hold dear: truth and courage. A trade union must stand up for its members.


Our Principles

  • Courage to support the local economy where we live.
  • Boldness to demand that our government create and preserve local jobs.
  • Commitment to secure investment in local industries and skills.

The Challenge

It has been alarming to witness jobs and opportunities being exported overseas or outsourced within the UK at an accelerating pace. If unchecked, England’s economic future will continue to suffer, and unemployment—especially among the younger generation—will rise. Unemployment facts reveal a growing resentment within England’s workforce, driving the need for our union.


Join the Chorus for Change

We have toured extensively, speaking with ordinary working people from all walks of life, and there is a deafening chorus of concern. People feel let down by our inept government and UK-focused unions. In short, there is no one fighting for their cause in England—until now!

We are a union that cares, a union that puts the workforce of England first.


Take Action

Stand with us to secure a brighter economic future for England. Together, we will ensure that workers have a voice, local jobs are protected, and investment flows into our communities.
