Recording of ‘We are not rats! From UCS to BiFab and beyond – the struggle for decent work’ meeting, 18 April 2021

The recording of the third UCS work-in series of meetings (on the eve of the STUC Congress on 18 April 2021) is now available.

The meeting was entitled: ‘We are not rats! From UCS to BiFab and beyond – the struggle for decent work’, and was organised by the Jimmy Reid Foundation and supported by UNITE Scotland.

Chaired by the convenor of the Jimmy Reid Foundation project board, the speakers were Mary Alexander, UNITE Scotland deputy regional secretary, and Bob MacGregor, UNITE Scotland officer that led on the BiFab occupation. Unfortunately, Linda Hamill, a UCS work-in veteran, was unable to speak due to ill-health. We shall make sure she is a speaker at our other UCS work-in 50th anniversary meetings in due course.
