@RMTunionJan 14
RMT welcomes progress on a plan to improve rail services in the North. Railway investment pays for itself because for every pound spent on rail, £2.50 is generated in the wider economy. We need the work to start as soon as possible and we need a mass expansion of publicly owned transport to protect our climate and boost economic growth and employment. theguardian.com/business/202…

It’s absolutely right to call out those in positions of power whose decisions impact our members. Our unions democratically decided policy is against outsourcing and two tier workforce it creates. Criticism is 100% due on leadership and politicians of nationalised ScotRail.
