POV tag

[edit]

Throughout the article, the union is praised — it is "highly regarded", its structure is held up as more democratic than others (the implication of being better than others is obvious), others are depicted as wasting tons of money on executive salaries, its bargaining is wonderfully careful at investigating grievances, it's standing up for the rights of workers being oppressed day-to-day by the eeevil employers, it was the only group to fight against stark bigotry (which "placed UE far ahead of other unions"), and it's fighting for the rights of government workers who lack the "right" to strike against the public interest, anywhere, anytime.

Federations

[edit]

There are currently indicated a couple of affiliations, these appear to need updating.

From the infobox: affiliation= ICEM, PSI

ICEM no longer exists, merged into IndustriALL Global Union. IndustriALL does seem to indicate UE to be affiliated.[1] However, PSI does not list UE as an affiliate. I was unable to spot anything in article text explaining these affiliations.[2] The only UE-created list I've yet managed to find is ambiguous on whether these are actually affiliations or a looser connection.[3] djr13 (talk) 17:20, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Propaganda

[edit]

This article is shameless propaganda from start to finish and ought to be deleted. Intelligent Mr Toad 2 (talk) 23:02, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
