#STUC25 Congress backed the St Fittick’s Park campaign and will actively support communities led just transition processes. It recognised the crucial role of trades union councils and encouraged all unions to affiliate.
Moving a composite from ATUC and Moray TUC, Steve Gray said the "Save St Fitticks Park campaign was “a story of greed power and corruption set against community solidarity, love and hope.
“Torry, home of the Torry cough, a life expectancy of 55, and Torry’s green lung St Fitticks Park, under threat from speculative development.”
He told delegates the bigger picture is who decides the future of the workers and their communities when their industrial base is at risk.
“The problems the people of Torry, Aberdeen and Moray face are replicated right across Scotland as big business tries to divide and rule our communities and asset strip our green spaces.”
He called for communities “to be able to make informed choices about their own future, resisting the divide and rule tactics of big businesses and their lackeys in local government.
