North Lanarkshire Update


I've had lots of enquiries about arranging local meetings in North Lanarkshire to discuss a variety of ongoing issues on equal pay.


Just to be crystal clear, I am not organising and advertising these meetings myself - as in the past people are making local arrangements to suit themselves and, of course, the various staff groups involved. 

Because folks on the ground know when and where is best to meet using suitable venues such as: community centres, church halls, social clubs, miners welfare clubs, etc etc.

So let's go to it and really start to raise the political temperature in North Lanarkshire over the next few months.

But 'many hands make light work' and it is vital that as many people as possible get stuck in between now and the Scottish Parliament elections in May.

If you ask me, the Council needs a change of leadership.

As well as an independently-led inquiry into the terrible mess that the current Labour administration has made of its pay arrangements and its behaviour over equal pay.

"First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn...
