Food banks are being set up in Glasgow’s cleansing depots as workers struggling with the cost of living crisis continue to rely on emergency food parcels.
GMB convenor, Chris Mitchell, has warned that strike action is necessary to resolve the pay dispute with COSLA who have “thrown workers to the wolves” as they failed to bring a new pay offer to the table today.
It comes as around 20 members of the trade union staged a protest at the Western Depot in Yorkhill this afternoon, calling for a “better pay rise, better working conditions and a better future” for themselves and their families.
