  1. Off to #STUC annual conference bright and early today…. Well, early at least - don’t expect any shining examples of brilliance from me until I’ve at least had some breakfast, possibly some lunch.

  2. Anyone off to the #STUC LGBT+ conference tomorrow in Glasgow?

  3. CW: STUC Conference, Arts and Culture

    An excellent motion put forward by #Equity and the #MusiciansUnion campaigning for an increase to Scotland’s creative and cultural budget. It does bring money to the nation, but even if it didn’t, it should still be given the funding it needs because the arts and culture are worth so much more than their economic value. Unsurprisingly, it was passed unanimously by congress. #STUC #Arts

  4. CW: STUC conference, UK Politics

    Paul Novak starting off today’s #STUC proceedings with a full rallying cry against the Tory government, against companies like P&O, against racism, and calling for unity and solidarity. #unionS #TUC

  5. Exhausting but exciting first day of the Scottish trade #unions congress, #STUC. So good to see so many unions from diverse backgrounds united together in solidarity.

  6. CW: STUC conference, Teaching

    Teaching #unions calling for a better deal for workers, specifically with an enforcement of contractual working time (working no more than 35 hours a week, not all evening and weekend). #STUC

  7. CW: STUC Conference, Right to Strike

    Humza Yousaf: we will oppose this abhorrent anti strike legislation at every level. We will campaign to make sure it is not applied in Scotland. However, if the UK government insists on imposing it on Scotland, the Scottish government promises it will NEVER use the new powers in Scotland. #STUC

    Strong words from the first minister of #Scotland.

  8. It’s very early, but I’ve successfully caught my train and am now off to the #STUC annual conference.

    Looking forward to meeting my fellow #TradeUnion colleagues.

  9. Photos from the #UCUrising picket at Glasgow Uni and from the #STUC rally at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall.

  10. Roz Foyer gave an excellent interview today on Good Morning Scotland on behalf of the #STUC

    Intelligent, well argued and to the point.

    The #union movement is more important than ever right now.

  11. One of the fun things about the #STUC training yesterday was seeing everyone’s reactions to the trainer’s explanation of what trading in #derivatives actually involves and why it so inevitably lead to the financial crash.

    Capitalist economics is so utterly ludicrous and out of control.

  12. Had a great day at the #STUC today. A pilot of their new training programme on the economy, capitalism, the cost of living crisis and sustainable societies.

    There was also a particularly excellent talk from #TrademarkBelfast

    #Solidarity #Union

  13. #STUC president Roz Foyer bringing solidarity from all Scottish unions to the #ucu:

    > higher university is not a sector or an industry, but a public service. Students are not clients or consumers
    > The Westminster shitshow is waging a war against workers across Britain
    > But the Scottish government needs to stop just pointing at Westminster, they got powers and fund unis. #ScottishGoverment needs to force unis to act like public services and not exploitative businesses
