Not that neutral as it turns out.They've also got a cross party parliamentary group formed at Westminster, which is chaired by John McDonnell. They're politically neutral in the sense that they don't back, stand or affiliate to political parties.
Branches, groups and the national executive all have the ability to back candidates based on existing union policies, but I don't think it was used at all for 2015? There certainly wasn't a mandate to support the TUSC either.
