    Try it and we'll mobilise our entire movement - 500,000 strong - in utter defiance. We won't be dictated to by a tinpot Thatcher tribute.
    💬 I will do everything in my power to make sure that militant action from trade unions can no longer cripple the vital services that hard-working people rely on. #LizForLeader @MailOnline 👉 dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

    🚂The message from Glasgow Central. ✊️Victory to the @RMTunion

    We have written today to @GlasgowCC expressing our deep concern at the decision to route three parades past Catholic churches in Glasgow tomorrow. We do not think it is too much to ask that minor route changes are agreed to reduce fear and distress in our communities.

    Throughout her leadership, @NicolaSturgeon has shown a high level of respect for the role of trade unions in Scotland. We deeply valued our working relationship & her personal commitment to respecting the position of the STUC. STATEMENT 👇

    We are deeply concerned at reports that the UK Government continues to oppose making available full furlough at 80% for Scotland at any point that it is needed If true it would mark a new low point in the Government’s treatment of Scottish workers and public health in Scotland

    We will not be silent. We will not cower.   Trade unions have a long history of defending our communities against fascists and racists. That work continues. 📅Saturday 7th September ⏲️12pm 📍George Square, Glasgow.

    ❗️Did we miss out the amber?❗️ UK Government is not just out of step with @scotgov. It is out of step with unions across the four nations and with the workers and communities who will bear the brunt of this confusion

    The First Minister @NicolaSturgeon is right to highlight both the negative effect of pandering to anti-migrant sentiment & the need for a separate Scottish approach. The STUC supports additional powers on migration for the Scottish Parliament
    Replying to @NicolaSturgeon
    3/ in both the development and content of these proposals, Scotland’s interests have been ignored. If our economy and society are not to be damaged - and the net positive contribution EU nationals make not lost - we need control over these decisions in our own Parliament.

    Breaking: @ScotRail dispute settled. @RMTunion @RMT_Scotland has won an improved offer! Congratulations also to @UniteScotland @ASLEFunion @TSSAScotland. A measure of justice for the workers who have kept us going through the pandemic. There is power in the union ✊

    Today we remember the 167 workers who lost their lives at the Piper Alpha oil installation 32 years ago. It’s why unions will never stop organising in pursuit of safer workplaces.
