A PACKED Stop the War and Scottish CND fringe meeting called for support for a motion pushing for peace talks in Ukraine, earlier today.

Stop the War chair Shelly Asquith said anti-war positions could not be taken for granted across the trade union movement.

She called on activists to fight to affiliate their union branches and trades councils to Stop the War, and announced the forthcoming launch of a Stop the War trade union network.
