THE SNP are “political allies” of the trade union movement, a senior trade union official has said.
Roz Foyer, general secretary of the Scottish Trades Union Congress (STUC), made the comment as she addressed delegates at the SNP conference. Foyer said she was encouraged to see motions being passed on progressive taxation and free school meals during the event.
“These are key parts of our People’s Plan for Action,” she said. “And I think for me, it absolutely underlines why we see the SNP as political allies of the trade union movement, and why we’re here and working with you.
