THE PEOPLE of the East End have thrown their weight behind a campaign to save jobs at the McVitie’s factory in Tollcross.
Activists from the Save Our Jobs Tollcross campaign took to Parkhead’s Forge Shopping Centre today for the first in a week-long action to gather public support against the proposed closure of the plant. They will gather every day this week between 12pm and 4pm to encourage members of the public to sign a petition that has now reached over 50,000 signatures.
