Firefighters have warned Scotland could face a first fire strike in 20 years if cuts to the service are not reversed.
Hundreds of Fire Brigades Union members and supporters gathered in George Square to send a message that planned cuts of £36 million will have devastating consequences for the service in communities.
He said 1100 jobs have been lost already due to cuts and the latest round will put another 200 at risk.“That is not something we take lightly. It is over 20 years since Scotland’s firefighters last took action.and safety and the communities we live and work in.” Union officials said when the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service was set up in 2013, the union was told it was the best way to avoid cuts.
To the Scottish Government, he said: “Think about the promises made 10 years ago, sit down with us and withdraw these cuts.”
