THE head of the UK’s largest trade union is to attack Downing Street for seeing it as the “enemy within” in contrast to the inclusive approach of the devolved governments.
Unison general secretary Christina McAnea is to highlight how the Scottish Government was involved in talks on a local government pay negotiations when she delivers the annual Jimmy Reid Foundation lecture on the cost-of-living crisis at Glasgow City Chambers tonight.
She will outline how Nicola Sturgeon was “personally involved” in trying to find a resolution – but add: “I can’t imagine Liz Truss or any of her cabinet doing that.”
