Scottish Labour leader Richard Leonard
BLACKLISTING building giants should be put on a public services blacklist, along with tax dodgers, Scottish Labour leader Richard Leonard said today.
He told the Scottish TUC Congress that companies that victimised thousands of trade unionists over decades “should be barred” from public contracts “until they own up, clean up and pay up in full.”
Mr Leonard used his address to blast the SNP’s record in government, saying the party had presided over a “decade of mediocrity and timidity.”
