In these special episodes of the podcast, we’ll be hearing from some of the people who spoke to Daniel Gray for the STUC book ‘Mon the Workers: Celebrating 125 Years of the Scottish Trades Union Congress. Published by Luath Press and available in all the usual places, it includes interviews with 75 trade unionists and portrait photographs of a further 50.
This time, we’re joined by Claire Peden. Having long been interested in workers’ rights, Claire attended a short union course and immediately became an activist. An organising role with the Bakers’ Union followed, and she helped mobilise fast food workers, not least when 2018’s ‘Beast from the East’ storm struck.
