Paul Nowak wants to see Labour 's promise of change turned in to 'delivery' in 2025 .

TUC general secretary wants 2.8% pay rises just above inflation rate of 2.6% next year .

Nowak : "Families want to feel better off and see material improvements in their day to day lives".

Ministers insist that a move to green power will attract more investment, support new skilled jobs, and "re-industrialise" parts of the UK . Paul Nowak has worked for the TUC for almost a quarter of a century , and was its deputy general secretary from 2016 to the start of 2023 . He told me there has been - perhaps unsurprisingly much greater engagement from this Labour government than its predecessors. The TUC will hope to influence ministers, but it's clear they won't always see eye-to-eye..
