Credit Where Credit's Due


I was pleased to see that Nicola Sturgeon paid tribute to Glasgow's equal pay claimants at this year's Scottish TUC in Dundee.

But it's almost as if the politicians can't bring themselves to recognise the role played by Action 4 Equality Scotland (A4ES) in the long fight for equal pay - or the contribution of the GMB and Unison during Glasgow's historic strike in support equal pay in October 2018.

Nicola Sturgeon pays tribute to Glasgow women who fought for equal pay

NICOLA Sturgeon has paid tribute to the women of Glasgow who fought for equal pay.

Speaking at the Scottish Trades Union Congress, the First Minister praised Glasgow City Council workers who stood up against gender inequality and won their case earlier this year.

She said: "I want to pay tribute to the courage, determination and persistence of women council workers in my home city of Glasgow.

"I'm delighted their cases have now been settled. They exemplify the fact that if you organise against injustice, you can win.
