HUNDREDS of trade unionists marched down Edinburgh’s historic Royal Mile to the doors of Holyrood today in their fight to save Scotland’s only oil refinery from the axe.

Led by a brass band, Grangemouth workers were joined by Unite activists from across Scotland and those at refineries around Britain as they demanded action to save more than 400 jobs at the site and nearly 3,000 jobs in the supply chain, put in jeopardy by a decision from energy company Petroineos to close the plant by summer 2025.
