Brilliant speech from Eddie Dempsey, sparked by a discussion on winter fuel payments. Speaking directly to our young members, he condemned the prioritisation of corporate profits over what will their futures and stability. Leading the working class into battle against cuts ✊

The industrial struggles of RMT workers - and their courageous strike action - lit a fire that won't be extinguished. Their leadership during the cost of living crisis showed the politicians that, when united, workers are more powerful than we dare to imagine.

Growing up in Maryhill, Jessie Stephen dedicated her life to championing workers’ rights, women's suffrage and social justice and I was delighted to tour her exhibition at Maryhill Burgh Halls with curators Aurora and Anabel.
