Council staff in pay protest
Local government workers are taking to the streets of Edinburgh to call for an end to the public sector pay freeze and a commitment to paying people a living wage.
Unions predict thousands of council workers will come out in support of Fair Pay Day. They are calling on councils to implement a living wage of £7.20, insisting this was a commitment made by both Labour and the SNP before the election. Unions also call for an end to the pay freeze for public service workers.
