Have your say on potential savings to help meet the council's budget gap. Every year councillors get a report on public views of different cuts options so please do fill the survey out. Every year there are also options for investment to improve lives and our place too. I want to hear those too.

More action on recycling, fly tipping and litter was approved by councillors yesterday worth £2.5 million, including recent proposals that I put forward backed by the SNP that responded directly to your concerns. See thread @scottishgreens.org @gillianmacmsp.bsky.social @southlangreens.bsky.social

A new poll has the Scottish Greens on a record breaking 18 MSPs!
This would make us the second largest party in Scotland, ahead of Labour, the Tories and Reform.

Secured by Green Councillor @krobbgreen.bsky.social, it's great to see this scheme now open up. The idea is to help people deal with compostable waste close to home, save people money on the garden charge and provide you with garden compost into the future.

Thank you for highlighting this. It's absolutely shocking. Another reason why rent controls are needed @patrickharvie.bsky.social @gillianmacmsp.bsky.social @lauramoodie.bsky.social
i’m not sure i believe the 34% figure - i think it’s much worse
we moved to SL in 2019, and most places were around what we initially paid - £425, up to around £595
just checked rightmove for 2 bed places in SL - of the 51 available, average rent is £864
we get £450 towards housing from UC btw

Big thread: Want to save money on dealing with your waste and do the right thing? Read on:
With the news yesterday www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... that, albeit temporarily, some of Scotland’s waste will be exported to England, we need to get a grip on waste.

Truckloads of Scotland's rubbish will be exported to England, say experts
Up to 100 trucks a day could take Scotland's waste to England once a landfill ban comes in at the end of the year.
