Encouraging Words

Here are just some of the encouraging messages I've received following yesterday's  UK Supreme Court decision - to unanimously dismiss the ludicrous FOI appeal by South Lanarkshire Council.

"Congratulations, Mark on the Supreme Court result. Read it on BBC website and of course on your blog site."

"Great news!"

"Well done, Mark, this is now a really important case for future equal pay claimants."

"Congratulations on supreme court outcome thank you on behalf of all my colleagues for your hard work  and support."

"Congratulations on today's verdict, you must be feeling well chuffed with yourself today."

"Mark, I never doubted you would get the decision. Well done."

"Excellent, will tweet!"

"Brilliant!!!"

"Excellent news. A celebration to be had."

"Well done on South Lanarkshire."

"Hi Mark, a big congratulations to you and your team on the great news."

"Well done  with the result from the Supreme Court  on your FOI case! Have been watching this with interest and am disgusted by SLC's behaviour - it is obvious they are in the wrong and should apologise and pay up."

Eddie McAvoy (the Labour leader of South Lanarkshire Council) is a disgrace and should go." 

"Hi Mark, fantastic news on the FOI appeal. So glad you have never given up on our equal pay claim."

 

"You won! Congratulations on your court victory." 

"Mark, I was sure you would win - there was never any doubt in my mind. Keep up the good work"

I've also said to various newspapers that Councillor Eddie McAvoy, if he has any dignity, should resign as Labour Leader of South Lanarkshire Council because he has presided over the mess the Council has made of equal pay - and is ultimately responsible for the terrible waste of public money in fighting this case all the way to the UK Supreme Court.
