Manage episode 356669255 series 3453407
In these special episodes of the podcast, we’ll be hearing from some of the people who spoke to Daniel Gray for the STUC book ‘Mon the Workers: Celebrating 125 Years of the Scottish Trades Union Congress. Published by Luath Press and available in all the usual places, it includes interviews with 75 trade unionists and portrait photographs of a further 50.
This time, we’re joined by Tam Dewar. Tam has been a union member all his working life. In the 1990s he became a postal worker and has taken part in a number of successful actions to protect conditions, culminating in the 2018 battle to save Royal Mail, which he details here. Tam also outlines what his union, the CWU, has been doing to appeal to younger people.
