MDC T leader Douglas Mwonzora and his team paid a courtesy call on the newly elected Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions yesterday.

Mwonzora said his party is open to everyone despite political differences.

“Thank you new leadership of the ZCTU. We will continue championing the rights of the workers. Our ideology is social democracy. We believe in political pluralism and the politics of rational disputation.”

Early this month, MDC Alliance senior officials led by vice president Tendai Biti Friday paid a courtesy call on the newly elected Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU) where the two parties exchanged notes on how to progress.

The party still considers the ZCTU its parent organisation as several of its founding leaders, including the revered late party leader Morgan Tsvangirai, were labour leaders.

MDC T said it continues its founding mission of championing the rights of workers across Zimbabwe.
