PayFest 2019 - Glasgow's Big Equal Pay Party


After considering all the options, the ticketing arrangements for PayFest 2019, Glasgow's big equal pay party, have been agreed as follows.

  • Tickets will go on sale online on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 April 2019 - and will be restricted to Claimants in the first instance
  • Tickets will be sold on a 'first come first served' basis and Claimants can order as many as they like, so long as they are for other colleagues and co-workers.
  • Each ticket purchased will need to be accompanied by a National Insurance number to ensure that they are being allocated to a Glasgow Claimant from A4ES, GMB, Unison or Unite.
  • Details of the online internet address will be shared in the run-up to 22 and 23 April - there will also be an A4ES  helpline number to talk Claimants through any problems.
  • If any remain unsold by 5pm on Tuesday 23 April, these tickets will be become available for Claimants' family members of friends to purchase.
  • The cost of tickets is £10 but the proceeds (@ £10,000) will be going towards the acquisition of a fitting and lasting tribute to the Claimants and their long fight for equal pay with Glasgow City Council

The online address and helpline number will be published next week, but will not go 'live' until 10am on Monday 23rd April 2019.

Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "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't... P
