OVER 100 people marched through Dundee yesterday in solidarity with workers lobbying MPs in Westminster against the Trade Union Bill.

Delegates poured out of the Scottish TUC’s women’s conference to hear Labour Councillor Richard McCready praise the “near unanimous” decision by Dundee City Council to oppose the Bill and refuse to implement the attacks on check-off and facility time, as well as commit not to use agency workers to break strikes.

He called on the Scottish government to state its opposition to the Bill “loudly and clearly” and pledge their support to local councils fighting against the “disgraceful attack on the right to organise.”
