SNP Trade Union Group

SNP Trade Union Group

The SNP Trade Union Group (TUG) is an affiliated organisation of the Scottish National Party (SNP). They were formed in the 1960s as the Association of Scottish Nationalist Trade Unionists to persuade Scottish trade unionists of the virtues of Scottish independence and to ensure the SNP has an organised presence in the trade union movement.

The TUG is allowed to send delegates to the SNP Annual National Conference and National Council meetings, and has one representative on the National Executive Committee (NEC).
