Great news. So proud of the people of Pollokshields as I was of the East Kilbride Rolls Royce workers who undermined Pinochet in the 1970s. This is the true character of working class people in Scotland. Starmer hasn't got a clue. Glad the documentary makers are getting the recognition they deserve.
