So to sum up. 1) A new Glasgow Central seat crossing the river to take in Govan, Anderson/City/Yorkhill and Calton wards. 2) A revised Glasgow Southside seat not crossing the river to take in Southside Central, Pollokshields and Langside wards. You know it makes sense.
Val McDermid on her new book Queen Macbeth: 'It’s quite clear the Macbeths weren’t murderous tyrants' - interview by @JanetChristie2 scotsman.com/must-read/val-… @PolygonBooks @valmcdermid
Our former director has this letter in the Herald today:
A lot going on here in the last 24 hours, but that’s no excuse for not Thanking all those who have remained polite & truthful even when passionately disagreeing, and also to all those who have posted supportive messages. Bless you.❤️
Off the top of my head settling equal pay w/out bankrupting city, finally getting Council to take active travel seriously, political bravery on eg a safe consumption facility, strong partnership working to make Glasgow Europe's top city for FDI & a leader on sustainability.
I reckon the SNP's Susan Aitken is, or will soon be, the longest-serving Glasgow council leader of all time (pre and post reorganisation). Pat Lally's 8 years were not continuous. Serious question: what's her legacy?
Ever insightful as always! Thanks to @NicolaSturgeon for coming to Tranent for our @EastLothianSNP campaign launch today 💛

Reading Anita Brookner, I’m reminded that some of my favourite writers take great care when creating their secondary characters, the supporting players adding breadth and depth. Anita Brookner, Elizabeth Taylor and Penelope Fitzgerald spring to mind. Who else?

I really am incredulous at today’s furore. It’s *five years* since the statement below appeared. If we can’t do policy and politics better than this then we have no change of getting anywhere near #netzero
seems to me that recent weeks highlight a very real democratic deficit in Scotland. How do we get our journalists and politicians to engage in debate on legislation during the democratic process rather than on Twitter after the event?
Amazing night in Edinburgh courtesy of the truly fantastic @ToppingsEdin team, not least interlocutor extraordinaire Zain, & the genius that is Percival Everett. #JAMES 🧡
A helpful explanatory thread.
I'm seeing some claims floating about here that the Scottish Government has "banned" woodburning / biomass heating. This isn't true. I've seen people worried by these claims, thinking they'll be forced to rip out their woodburner! No, you won't.
