THE need for the trade union movement has “never been greater,” new Scottish First Minister Humza Yousaf is set to tell the STUC Congress tomorrow. 

In a speech on the opening day of the union body’s annual meet-up in Dundee, Nicola Sturgeon’s successor is expected to ask delegates for their help building a “socially just Scotland we can all be proud of.”

Mr Yousaf will also stress that he won the recent SNP leadership contest on a “very clear commitment to progressive politics.”
