In this episode retiring NEC member Dave Cook looks back on 30 years’ service to the POA – how he got involved, why the NEC is different to work at a branch level, how the job and the union have changed,  what further change is still necessary, and the high profile issues that Dave was instrumental in  - keeping members safe despite overcrowding and the pandemic.

Dave’s reputation is one of straight talking and telling it like it is.  As you’ll hear, he’s clearly lost none of that passion.

Replacing Dave on the union’s Executive Committee is Phil Hannant.  Phil tells us about the journey that has taken him to the NEC, and his hopes and priorities for his term of office.
