Stand up and fight for Grangemouth

MSPS have been urged to stand up and "fight for Scotland" by voicing their opposition to the closure of Grangemouth oil refinery.

Sharon Graham, general secretary of Unite, will lead a rally to the Scottish Parliament this week to help save more than 400 high-skilled jobs at the site.

In an interview with the Record, the veteran trade unionist said there had until recently been "deafening silence" from politicians at Holyrood and Westminster regarding the future of Scotland's last oil refinery.

Graham will travel to Edinburgh on Thursday in an attempt to drum up support for Unite's plan for Grangemouth to be converted into a production facility for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
