Edinburgh protesters take aim at rail cuts in march to Nicola Sturgeon's residence

Rail, ferry and energy workers have gathered in Edinburgh to protest against promises they say were made towards a greener Scotland, but not delivered.

RMT Union members have marched through the streets of the capital to Bute House in Charlotte Square, unhappy over Nicola Sturgeon and the Scottish Greens' announcement following Cop 26 regarding a cut to public services.

Workers are protesting against cutting rail ticket office hours, timetables and infrastructure, while also noting that the price of rail travel is increasing at four times the rate of using a car.
