Answer» What is Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition mean? Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (TUSC) is a socialist electoral alliance launched in Britain for the 2010 general election. TUSC's co-founder was the RMT union general secretary Bob Crow. Members of the PCS, NUT, FBU and POA unions are on the steering committee. The biggest component section of TUSC is the RMT. The most prominent participating political groups are the Socialist Party andRESIST: Movement for a People's Party. TUSC stood 135 (parliamentary) candidates across England, Wales and Scotland at the 2015 general election and 619 the same day in local government elections. Following the election of Jeremy Corbyn as leader of the Labour Party, TUSC did not stand candidates in the 2017 UK general election and suspended electoral activity in November 2018. In July 2020, the Socialist Party called for the relaunch of the alliance and in September the TUSC steering committee agreed to resume standing candidates in elections scheduled for May 2021. reference |
