Strong unions for Scotland’s workers 
Collective action is the only way to protect the working class everywhere from the cost-of-living crisis, says RMT general secretary MICK LYNCH
Mick Lynch, general secretary of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT), joins union members on the picket line outside Euston station in London during a rail strike in a long-running dispute over jobs and pensions. Picture date: Thursday March 16,

RMT is proud to put its shoulder to the wheel for our members and their colleagues across the transport and offshore energy sectors to get a better deal for Scotland’s workers. 

With the cost-of-living crisis eating away at workers’ terms and conditions, STUC unions are meeting in Dundee at just the right time to co-ordinate our industrial mettle. 

It is heartening to see a diverse range of motions from across Scotland’s trade unions which reflect this emergency.
