NHS workers and patients nee more than Swinney's ‘jam tomorrow’, union warns
Unison flags

THE SNP First Minister’s plans for NHS Scotland amount to little more than “jam tomorrow” without moves to solve its staffing crisis, according the service’s biggest union.

Unison issued the warning as John Swinney outlined his vision for the future of healthcare in Scotland at Heriot-Watt University’s National Robotarium in Edinburgh.

The announcement came as Scottish Health Secretary Neil Gray remains under fire for the use of an official vehicle to travel to Aberdeen football matches and his government reels from the ditching of its national care service proposals.
