GLASGOW - STOP PRESS - NEW CONTRACT

Glasgow City Council has issued another letter to those employees who have not signed up to the new contract - mainly people who are pursuing an equal pay claim with Action 4 Equality Scotland and Stefan Cross.

Our advice up till now has been NOT to sign the new contract - because this could potentially compromise your ongoing equal pay claim.

But having looked carefully at the details of the latest letter, the council is now saying that the new terms will be imposed on all employees from 1 April onwards, which puts a different complexion on things.

In effect, the council is now forcing the new terms on everyone - whether they like it or not - and this gets round the dilemma of people signing up on a voluntary basis.

SO - FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF ANY DOUBT - YOU CAN NOW SIGN THE NEW CONTRACT WITHOUT COMPROMISING YOUR ONGOING CLAIM!

So here's the issue - two Glasgow MSPs (Nicola Sturgeon and Humza Yousaf) have been asked a reasonable question about their use of public money to employ two SNP councillors who already have full-time, salaried jobs as senior elected members of Glasgow City Council.   But these two public servants (both long-serving ministers) refuse to answer, so what to do next? One regular reader suggests raising the matter on the floor of the Scottish Parliament which is a good idea, but requires an MSP who's prepared to put down a written question for Scottish Ministers to answer. So here's a list of activities which will help shine a light on what has been going on because as Lord Nolan once said apropos driving up standards in public life - 'daylight is the best disinfectant'.
