The nine day unofficial strike by low paid health workers in Inverclyde and Paisley ended in a victory for the workers. From the 1 September the workforce will receive £5 per hour. They also agreed to pay the full demand of £5.18 from April 1 2003. Stewards at both Hospitals have asked me to thank those comrades who gave moral & financial support. In particular they want to give a big thank you to Tommy Sheridan who visited both picket lines.
