Episode 49 of the Common Weal Policy Podcast

You can download the episode directly here.

This week, Craig Dalzell speaks to Bob Gillespie from Common Weal's Test, Trace, Isolate and Support Group - a group from the Common Weal Locals activist network who decided to get together to raise awareness of and lobby for our Ending Lockdown policy paper.

Bob discusses how the group got together and what they've been doing in terms of lobbying politicians, health boards and trade unions and what feedback they've been getting back in return.

If you would like to get involved with the TTIS Group or would like more information from them then you can email them at TTIS@common.scot

And all of Common Weal's policy work can all be found in the Common Weal Policy Library.

Apologies for the drop in sound quality in this episode. This is due to the technical limitations imposed by the current UK lockdown.

Common Weal's work is only possible thanks to our generous supporters who regularly donate an average of £10 per month. If you would like to help us build our vision of an All of Us First Scotland, you can do so here: http://commonweal.scot/about/donate

The Policy Podcast would like to discuss all of Common Weal's policy papers in detail over the next several months so if there are any papers that you would like to see covered sooner rather than later, send your suggestions in to craig@common.scot
