Public services are the heart of a fairer Scotland. Our 2026 manifesto is grounded in what workers are telling us every day: services stretched, staff under strain, and too much rhetoric. Read it and vote for public services.

💜💚 Scottish Elections 2026 – Housing Crisis Briefing
UNISON Scotland has released a new influencer briefing on Solving Scotland’s Housing Crisis — highlighting the urgent need for action on housing and welfare.
✊ As we head towards the election, housing must be a priority.

💜💚 Disabled workers still face barriers to fair work & independent living
UNISON is calling for proper support, enforced adjustments & investment in care and services ✊
As elections approach: what will candidates do to remove these barriers?
The manifesto argues Scotland is being asked to accept cuts as inevitable. It says public sector reform plans point to around 15,000 job cuts over 5 years, even as demand for services keeps rising. You cannot cut your way to stronger public services.

Exc: @unisonscot leader Lilian Macer warns SG plans for mass job losses would have a 'catastrophic impact'.
"The proposals in the SG public services reform strategy are unrealistic, they are unworkable and they are frankly dangerous."

"Not being properly funded by the government."
NHS Ayrshire & Arran has reduced its projected deficit to £25m, despite the lower figure it remains overspent amid ongoing pressures, with @unisonscot Matt McLauglin saying health boards need “better funding.”

Local services across Scotland are underfunded, undervalued and underpaid despite their vital roles.
At #ScotBudget, the Scottish Government must keep its promise to our movement on tax, transport, education and social care.
