Contributing sentiments towards policy:

57% : A Labour government would reform statutory sick pay by removing both the "lower earnings limit", which cuts out those on low wages, and the waiting period, which means workers can only access it from day four of sickness.
51% : Their backing is founded on Labour's manifesto including a long list of pro-worker policies dubbed the "new deal for workers" that meets many of their demands.
45% : Sharon Graham, general secretary of Unite the Union, said the UK's largest opposition party needed to be "bolder" and embrace policies such as the nationalisation of the energy industry.
