Scottish Greens: Starmer has abandoned workers
Commenting on reports that Keir Starmer has sacked a frontbench spokesperson for joining a picket line, Scottish Greens MSP Ross Greer said:
“So far this week Keir Starmer has scrapped plans to bring essential services into public ownership, and sacked a frontbench spokesperson for joining striking workers on their picket line. At this rate he’ll have joined the race to become the new Tory leader by Friday.
“Every workforce has the right to fight to protect their pay, terms and conditions and to take industrial action as part of that fight. Rail workers may no longer enjoy the support of the Labour Party, but they can count on the support of the Scottish Greens.”
