THE executive committee of the RMT has appointed Mick Cash as acting general secretary to continue the work of the union following the untimely death of Bob Crow.

Mick Cash said that Bob Crow’s vision for the union would continue along with its industrial and political agenda as decided by RMT’s democratic structures.

“It has been a difficult time for the union but we are determined to remain united in the way that Bob would have wanted,” he said.
