Sorry for the delay to post this yesterday (been moving house), however yesterday lunchtime our Glasgow MSPs & Cllrs re-emphasised our calls to not use fire and rehire in the Council. We want to see the Council reach collective agreement & union members balloted (1/3) greens.scot/news/no-plac...

On the same day drug deaths tragically go up by 11%, Glasgow's IJB is facing having to cut preventative drug treatments. If the Scottish Government is serious about acting to tackle our drug deaths, then they should start funding action on it than cutting it.
Health and social care chiefs in Glasgow are aiming to save £20m by April 2027 due to “increasingly challenging” funding pressures.

A first round of cuts includes slashing the number of day care centres from ten to four and removing around 24 posts in a welfare rights service. Plans also include scrapping services for enhanced drug treatment and complex needs, replacing them with a combined offer

So Unite the Clans have went full-throttle defenders & advocates of Nazism now. Politicians who collaborated with them like Cllrs Audrey Dempsey & Thomas Kerr should hang their heads in shame & P45s in - they aren't fit to be local leaders in their communities. www.facebook.com/share/p/1EiY...

If Anas Sarwar cared only about serving in a UK Labour Government, why didn't he stand in the 2024 General Election when Labour were doing well & do it then? He clearly never cared about running a Scottish Government - he made skud all difference in Holyrood & treated it only as a stepping stone.

Today marks the 90th anniversary of the Spanish Civil War. A total of 549 Scots volunteered to fight in Spain. Proportionally more Scots volunteered than from any other country. We still have a lot of work to do in Scotland to tackle fascism, racism, and all forms of discrimination.
