SNP union group ‘does nothing to support workers’
Labour MSP Neil Findlay

SCOTTISH Labour’s Neil Findlay launched a withering attack on the SNP’s caucus of trade unionists today.

In his bi-weekly column for the Morning Star, which from this week will run every other Thursday, the Lothian MSP has accused the SNP trade union group of doing “absolutely nothing” to support workers who lost their jobs as Glasgow’s St Rollox railway works closed last week.

Trade unions had called for the historic works, known as the “Caley,” to be nationalised.
