Cole-Hamilton comments on Glasgow teacher strikes

Responding to reports that teachers in Glasgow are going to strike over the city's SNP councils decision to cut 450 posts, Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP said:

“There is a simple explanation for why these strikes are being called- years of SNP cuts to local authority budgets.

“With the cost-of-living crisis still ongoing, staff are at their wit’s end.

“Any single day of a child’s education lost is nothing short of a travesty. This should be a serious kick up the behind for the Scottish Government; they need to step up to the plate and sort it out.”
