Labour lost the election in Scotland last year. Now they want to undermine the Scottish government by inciting industrial action. They are exploiting people\'s fears for party ends.
The threat of industrial action by Unison, Unite and the GMB is politically inspired by Gordon Brown and Wendy Alexander. Their threat of industrial action is sudden and not in keeping with their previous negotiations with the employers COSLA.
A below inflation pay rise is difficult but the grant from London to Scotland is even further below inflation so where is the money to come from to pay these council workers This is why Brown is holding back Scotland\'s money. This is Scotland\'s punishment for not voting Labour.
When Labour was in power these unions did not act against them in similar circumstances. Plus, there is no talk of industrial action in England. This is purely inspired in order to undermine the Scottish government.
Use the links below to stop trade unionists\' money being channelled to New Labour.

The feedback I keep hearing from you confirms that this political game with our public services has gone on long enough. It feels like an uphill climb to get anyone in power to listen but I am not walking away from this fight.

Fed up with these games. Scottish money should stay in Scotland and stop being used as a weapon against us.
