Scottish cities gear up for day of action

People will fill the streets across Scotland on 30 November with a series of rallies in each of the main Scottish cities.

“We had a good result in the ballot, people are clearly very angry, we’re expecting a good turnout on the day,” UNISON Scotland policy officer Stephen Low says.

The Scottish TUC has organised rallies for Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee, Aberdeen and Inverness, with possibly more to be held in some of the bigger towns.

“We’re fully involved in all the rallies,” Mr Low says.

The events are being advertised on mobile advertisement trailers travelling up and down the length of Scotland to ensure that as many people as possible are aware of them.

The 30 November day of action has received support from all six candidates in the Scottish Labour leadership elections, Mr Low says, and momentum is growing among members and branches for turnout on the day.
