I'm really pleased Glasgow City Council is taking the lead on restoring the lost tenements at Albert Cross in Pollokshields. There's a long way to go but this is a really positive step for the local community.

Glasgow's Visitor Levy Forum will have both community and worker voices on it after Green amendments were agreed unanimously today.

This will help balance the voices of big business and ensure that investment priorities focus on people who live and work in Glasgow too.

Really positive news for Pollokshields. The Council is launching a design contest for the reinstatement of the historic Albert Cross tenements. This is just the first step but it signals a real commitment to getting this done.

He who holds Stirling, holds Scotland....

Well done to Cllr Tollemache in helping oust the Tory/Lab Council, & instead offer a progressive alternative 💚

Looking forward to his work as Transport & Net Zero Convenor in fighting for public ownership of buses, & community-owned renewables ✊️
Very proud my friend and colleague Alasdair Tollemache has entered a progressive agreement to join the Stirling Council administration! He will work hard to cut climate emissions and bills for Stirling's communities, improve buses, protect tenant's rights and restore nature💚

Proposing Green amendment to Labour's celebration of the Pride in Place funding, @jonmolyneux.bsky.social highlights we are facing deep challenges such as in housing & homelessness, and that the UK Government ought to engage with the Council on these now. ❌
