Lighting in Alexandra Park is something quite a few folk have been raising. 💡

So myself, council officers, & residents walked around discussing locations to improve park users’ safety, especially for women.

I’ll keep pressing to progress this work with officers & the community in the new year 💚

Today, Glasgow's Green Councillors wrote to David Lammy demanding urgent action from him in the case of the 8 alleged members of Palestine Action who have been on hunger strike.

This is a crisis - the Justice Secretary must intervene & hear their pleas ✊️🇵🇸

Proud to join the St Andrew's day march against Racism & Facism, along with Trade Unions, & communities like Springburn yesterday✊️

None of this rhetoric against migrants funds another community centre, another park, another workforce - taxing the wealthy does 💚

I think this quote from the Council speaks volumes.

Certain online agitators wanting to stand outside a school because the family education services being offered includes Asylum Seekers too.

Solidarity with staff at Dalmarnock Primary tomorrow & everyone just wanting to provide education to all 💚

Dalmarnock Primary's been offering family learning for years.

It's sad *some* parents are boycotting a school cause asylum seeker families get that support too via ESOL.

Funny how certain folk never raised PVG concerns for other family learning on offer...

Glasgow's Vistor Levy Forum will have both Community & Worker voices sitting on it after Green amendments agreed unanimously. 💚✊️

This will help balance the voices from big business who sit on the forum, to make sure investment focuses on people who live and work in Glasgow too 🏘

Tonight we have the chance to qualify for our first World Cup since 1998. It could be spectacular.

And every single group game has been shown live on free-to-view TV.

Our national team is for all of us. It should never return to being hidden behind a paywall.
