    This is what they mean when they say “People Make Glasgow”. Our members have pride in their city and in their work, and the courage to stand up for what’s right and fair. We couldn’t be more proud to represent these frontline heroes. #cop26 #cop26strike

    BREAKING: Glasgow #COP26 refuse and cleansing strike to go ahead. Glasgow City Council has acted in bad faith and failed to give our members proper time and space to discuss the 11th hour offer from COSLA. Strike action will commence from midnight. gmb.org.uk/news/cop26-str…

    Full credit to @NicolaSturgeon and the Scot Gov for battling for #BiFab. Future of the contract delivered. Now to build for the long-term. #battleforBiFab

    A short message of thanks to the public from GMB Scotland Convenor for Glasgow City Council cleansing department, Chris Mitchell. And there’s a message for the government in there too... #ClapForKeyWorkers 👏

    "Stand with us, and stand shoulder to shoulder in solidarity." Enough is enough. #COP26Strike

    When 8,000 women in Glasgow went on strike for equal pay, the city's cleansing workers refused to cross the picket lines. Frances and her care worker colleagues joined their fellow GMB members on their picket line this morning. This is what solidarity looks like. ✊

    Thank you to GMB Scotland members in the Glasgow cleansing department for the fantastic job they do to keep the city clean - @gmb_40. Politicians will be quick to praise them again this morning, but what they deserve is a proper pay rise. Claps and praise won’t pay the bills.
    📷 George Square is now free of broken glass and litter, after a massive clean-up operation overnight.

    GMB offered proposals to @GlasgowCC to reset industrial relations and to fix Glasgow's waste crisis. These were rejected. Low paid workers and community activists are now standing together across Glasgow to say "enough is enough". Stand with us, not against us. ✊ #COP26

    Glasgow's striking cleansing workers united with the #FridaysForFuture march through the streets of the city today, with a clear message. Social justice and climate justice must go hand in hand, with no one left behind. ✊ #cop26 #cop26strike

    🧐 It is true, @patrickharvie... Our GMB care members are winning their #FightFor15, despite the best efforts of the @scottishgreens.

    Spirits were high this morning at the Blantyre waste and recycling centre in South Lanarkshire. 🎶"Because bins won't empty without me!"

    Our union has lost a great fighter today. A strong, decent and courageous wee woman from Glasgow, never afraid to stand up to the boss or to fight to defend democracy and decency in the union. RIP Cathy Murphy.
