"Negotiating alongside Laura
over many years has convinced
me that she will make a
great General Secretary."
John Toner, former Scotland,
Freelance and Northern Organiser
“I’m backing her as I know first-hand her skill in negotiating and organising, and her experience and commitment to members and to recruitment. Laura understands the vital importance of digital to our industry, and will stand up for journalists and journalism in all its many forms. The NUJ needs a General Secretary who can keep her nerve in a turbulent and shifting industrial space. Laura is that woman.”
Christina Zaba
Chair, The New Media Industrial Council
"I am proud to endorse Laura’s candidacy for the role as general secretary. In the increasingly challenging media world Laura has fought tirelessly on the key issues such as pay and redundancies, gender equality, terms and conditions at work and union recognition. I am sure she will be an outstanding GS as she is principled and tough, but fair in all negotiations. Above all, she never loses sight of the fact that all she does is for NUJ members and that every single one matters."
Mark Ellis, former Mirror FOC and NUJ life member.
