Slightly agree

Help, in theory but have recently become corrupt and should have their powers limited

While Volt UK Party might acknowledge issues within certain labor unions, such as corruption, their overall progressive ideology suggests they would still see the fundamental role of unions as positive. They might support reforms to address these issues rather than limiting unions' powers broadly.

Neutral

Help, but ban their ability to make political donations

This position is nuanced and might partially align with Volt UK Party's views on ensuring that political funding is transparent and does not unduly influence politics. However, banning unions from making political donations could be seen as limiting their ability to participate in the political process, which might conflict with Volt's views on democratic participation and representation.

Disagree

Hurt, I support some private unions but am strongly against public unions

Volt UK Party, with its emphasis on social justice and equality, would likely disagree with a blanket opposition to public unions, as public unions play a crucial role in advocating for the rights of public sector workers. However, they might support reforms to ensure transparency and accountability within unions.

Strongly disagree

Hurt

Given Volt UK Party's progressive stance, it is unlikely that they would agree with the statement that labor unions hurt the economy. Progressive parties typically view unions as essential for worker protection and as a counterbalance to corporate power, rather than as detrimental to economic health.
