A Glasgow cleansing worker has described the difficulties facing his family during the cost of living crisis as they struggle to find affordable school uniforms.
Andy Reid, who has worked for the city council for more than 20 years, says family life has been affected as a result of inflation meaning he and his wife are also having to cut back on the number of summer activities they can plan with their three young children aged ten, seven and five.
Mr Reid, who was part of the GMB protest on Friday afternoon at the Western Depot, says they are spending more than they are earning and have even had to cut back on pocket money.
