Andrew Polson has been jailed for two years, crossing the threshold for automatic disqualification. A by-election for East Dunbartonshire's Bearsden South ward will therefore now be held. This has been my most hotly anticipated by-election for genuinely three years. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Everybody deserves a safe place to live - and people seeking safety need dignity, not hostility.
The problem isn’t people. It’s the failed asylum system.
Hotels, barracks, barges - all dehumanising and unhelpful. About one in three people in asylum housing are survivors of torture.

Great piece here from Paul Shaw of Better Buses Strathclyde on why we need buses in public ownership to be able to deliver better, cheaper, joined up services across Strathclyde, and the rest of Scotland.

This nasty piece of writing (archive.is/To1OA to avoid giving money to that rag) has been popular with the Scottish terven, which should come as no surprise because their bigotry extends into misogyny and they can't stand to see anyone outside their hateful bubble success.
