Union seeks urgent meeting with MSPs who sought to discredit industrial action

RAIL union RMT has requested an urgent meeting with a group of SNP MSPs who sought to discredit ongoing industrial action in the run-up to November’s United Nations climate summit in Glasgow. 

The five Glasgow politicians should reiterate their support for the legal right to strike, the union said. 

RMT members working on Scotland’s railways have staged industrial action every Sunday for the past six months in a dispute with ScotRail over pay and conditions.
