UNISON blames strike action on 'vague & late' offer from Scottish government

The Scottish Sun Lilian Macer, Unison’s Scottish secretary, said the latest offer from employers was “too little, too late and too vague”.
School support staff in 24 council areas are walking out for three days from Tuesday after Unison rejected the offer, though GMB Scotland and Unite have suspended strikes while they consider it.
And Ms Macer warned that further strike action “will be on the cards” unless a deal is reached and called on First Minister Humza Yousaf to get involved in negotiations.
Mr Yousaf on Monday urged Unison to suspend strike action and put the offer to members.
Ms Macersaid: “It’s imperative that the First Minister move away from the cameras, move away from the press releases and come into the room and talk to Unison.
“The first we heard from the First Minister was last night, asking us, urging us not to take action.
“If you are serious about discussions with Unison, pick up the phone and as Scottish secretary I’ll be there.”
