Strikes, suspension, and world wide support…

As we move into August, this will prove to be a critical time as the dispute at Newsquest, although progressing with industrial action suspended, is still not settled. Action led to the reinstatement of Evening Times deputy FoC Gordon Thomson on Tuesday, while a work to rule caused the cancellation of digital training planned for next week. Meanwhile the dispute has been hotly discussed online and the NUJ Scottish office has seen a flood of support from all over the world including Slovenia, Australia and the United States.
