Hundreds of UK funeral workers across the country will stage a one day strike on Monday over low pay and long hours. ... Derek Ormston, regional industrial organiser for the T&G, said workers have been trying to get a professional salary for the past for years.

As opposed to hundreds of UK funeral workers across Tipton? The dead past is dead and buried, no point trying to get better pay for it. Also (look at the URL), why is this story in the Scotland section? I realise the Scots are often regarded as a dour bunch, but does this mean they now get all stories about funeral workers lumped into their section? There's no mention of Scotland, any Scottish town, Scottish people or any other link that I can see.
