The theme of this year’s Glasgow may day is to extent universal protections, specifically free school meals and promotion of our campaign on free public transport. The idea is that universal protection of the NHS has been and is fundamental to our recovery, that by extending these protections we can tackle some of the inequalities and poverty in our city.
This years Poster was designed by artist Lorna Miller, a limited amount of posters will be distributed some (watch out on Glasgow Trades Council Facebook group)
