TUC condemns decision to close Grangemouth chemical plant

Commenting on the decision yesterday (Wednesday) by Ineos to close the Grangemouth chemical plant, TUC General Secretary Frances O’Grady said:

“This is a savage blow to the Grangemouth workforce and the wider Scottish economy. This is irresponsible capitalism at its worst.

“The government always has contingency plans when workers go on strike, now ministers need to show they are as well prepared when owners go on permanent strike.”
