- No-one takes the decision to strike lightly. But council workers in Scotland deserve far better than this. See you on the picket line. 🟣🟢 #PayUpForCouncilStaff
- Our decision on the latest offer was taken by our Local Government committee which is made of local government workers, elected by their colleagues to represent them, from across all Scottish local authorities! Shambolic journalism here.EXC: A key official in the only trade union to continue strikes in schools next week is a Unionist campaigner and a high-ranking member of the Labour Party 🌹 Johanna Baxter is chair of Labour’s national executive committee (NEC), the ruling body of the party
- Day 1 of the strike - we turned Edinburgh green & purple - a strong message that we won't back down. 🟣🟢 #payupforcouncilstaff #UNISONstrikes
- Following the news that Cllr @GJMunro26 has been suspended for three-month from his party’s group at @Edinburgh_CC for refusing to back further budget cuts, UNISON extends a warm hand of support to him and applauds his bravery in being prepared to stand up against the cuts.
