NORTH Lanarkshire Trade Union Council has condemned a second attack on a monument commemorating the international brigades in Motherwell.
Last weekend marked the 85th anniversary of the start of the Spanish Civil War, and those seeking to mark the occasion on Sunday found the monument had been damaged for a second time in three weeks.
In June, fascist vandals spray-painted and covered the memorial in pro-Franco symbols, which were removed and cleaned by a father-and-son team.
