“We believe it's the cuts, the underfunding and the under-staffing of these services that means they don't have the capacity we need in times of crisis - that's within our NHS, our social care sector and our supermarkets”. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-57937583

Our NHS and care staff are already exhausted and undercut. The Scottish Government’s proposals to exempt them from COVID isolation guidance just confirms that their safety is not, and has never been, a priority for this government throughout the pandemic.https://www.gmb.org.uk/news/gmb-responds-first-ministers-statement-covid-19-restrictions

Glasgow and its services are absolutely on the brink. The city desperately needs significant investment from government to finally resolve its discrimination against working women and to begin to tackle the damage done by a decade of disastrous political austerity.

Our members are the life blood and nervous system of @UofGlasgow. Without their work, the institution couldn’t function.

Industrial cleaners on the Upper Clyde have worked diligently through the pandemic to keep the Govan and Scotstoun yards clean and safe. They're playing their part in delivering Britain's naval future, they deserve better than the statutory minimum wage.https://www.clydebankpost.co.uk/news/19422656.bae-scotstoun-industrial-action-threat-row-shipyard-cleaners-pay/

Scotland is a blueprint for how not to deliver a just transition for workers. We were promised 28,000 jobs in offshore wind and ended up with a few hundred. It’s not too late to fix it, but time is slipping and we need a plan, investment and action. Now. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/nicola-sturgeon-pulled-up-over-24448258

“This is an opportunity for us to expose the political hypocrisy about what is actually going on in our city in terms of the environment that working class people and our communities have to live in day-in, day-out.” @GMBGarySmith on Glasgow and #COP26. https://news.stv.tv/west-central/filthy-glasgow-could-see-strike-action-during-cop26-summit
