Two well-known Scottish cultural and sporting figures are to stage a joint event in the heart of the Calton to support the Weavers campaign.

Richard Jobson, who was brought up into a mining family in Fife and worked in the Rosyth Naval Dockyard rose to international fame as the singer-songwriter of the punk rock band, Skids before going onto to become an acclaimed film-maker and TV producer.

Graham Spiers is one of Scotland’s most artuculate and fearless football writers and cultural comentators. Both men have remained true to their progressive beliefs and are strong supporters of the campaign to elevate the Calton Martyrs to their rightful place in working and trade union history.

They will appear together in an evening of what promises to be fascinating conversation with a question and answer session in the heart of the Barras.
