Two long-serving members of Glasgow’s cleansing department have been praised for their “inspirational” service after working a combined 84 years cleaning the city’s streets.
Wullie Nixon retired after 43 years working for the city council as a street cleaner while John Martin is retiring after 41 years as a HGV driver.
Despite this they were not given an award ceremony in the city chambers, a practice that was stopped during the covid pandemic and has yet to restart.
