Scotland in brief: March 27, 2021
PICKETS: Justice Secretary Humza Yousaf has confirmed there will be changes to ensure that safe picketing is allowed after police in Edinburgh broke up a Covid-compliant protest by Unite.
Mr Yousaf was responding to a question in Holyrood by Labour MSP Neil Findlay, who raised concerns about disruption to action on March 17 at the Saica firm’s packaging site in Edinburgh.
Unite said the decision meant “that we retain the ability to hold bad bosses to account.”
