PEOPLE in Scotland are more consistently supportive of striking workers across a range of industries than those living in other parts of the UK, new polling has revealed.
A YouGov study ranking levels of support for workers taking industrial action found that Scotland is most supportive of RMT staff (50%), postal workers (56%) and university employees (45%) on strike, as well as those on picket lines across several other sectors.
Scotland-based respondents to the poll offered the highest level of support for strikers in nine out of the 14 industries selected for the survey.
