Glasgow’s Abandon Ship bar has closed with “immediate effect” with 14 workers made redundant

In January, workers staged a protest over covid breaches and raised concerns about the lack of holiday pay and lack of sick pay.

Glasgow’s Abandon Ship bar has closed with “immediate effect”, and 14 workers have been made redundant.

Staff say they will now “struggle to make ends meet” after the shock news this morning that they no longer have jobs.

It’s the latest in a long line of issues facing ailing hospitality group McMerry 300.

Staff had hoped their jobs were safe after the company was bought over by Belford Limited less than two weeks ago. Polly Bartlett reports
