FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Strikes could force first bus off the road in scotland - Caught on Camera

Unite the union has confirmed that Bidvest Noonan workers contracted to clean and refuel buses for First Bus in Glasgow and Aberdeen are set to strike in a dispute over pay.

More than 100 cleaners, fuellers and shunters contracted to work in First Glasgow and First Aberdeen bus depots are striking after previously rejecting a 2% pay offer backdated to 2022 at a time when RPI inflation has hit 13.4%.

Wages at the company start at £9.62 per hour, far below the £10.42 per hour that will be the national minimum wage from April.
