This year the United Workers Union (UWU) will have an election. Our union is at a turning point. This will be one of the biggest union elections in our movement’s history, giving members a say on who leads their union.
Members First is a team of members, delegates, organisers and leaders who will run as a team in the 2026 UWU election. Members First wants to give members and delegates the power to decide what UWU fights for and how we win.
Bosses are getting richer. Workers are burning out. The cost of living is soaring. Wages are going nowhere. Too many workers don’t even know what a union can be. A union has to show up.
Members First will rebuild a democratic union that shows up in workplaces, backs members to organise and take action, and is accountable to members. Members First wants to put the union back in the hands of members.
