(Photograph) - About 4,000 nursery nurses across Scotland went on a one-day strike last week as the long-running dispute with their council employers continued. Hundreds of striking childcare workers demonstrated at Glasgow City Council headquarters, while in Paisley 300 people attended a rally organised by Unison, the union representing the nursery nurses. Twenty-six of Scotland's 32 councils were affected by the day of action, the others having settled the dispute locally. Unison wants a starting salary of 18,000 for nursery nurses, who currently earn up to Pounds 13,800. The councils are recommending a maximum salary of 18,000. Unison is balloting nursery nurses on an all-out strike. Photo ATOM
