@MyGlasgowCC an untaxed car has been ‘parked’ in a pedestrianised area in the city centre (North archway at Royal Exchange Square) - can this be dealt with please?

[Laurie Macfarlane @L__Macfarlane]

This is desperate - he’s selectively focused on water usage, meter coverage, and leakage. There are very good reasons why these are higher in Scotland

What matters is water quality, environmental performance and price. Scotland performs better on all three

A new Mural honouring Granite City born Denis Law has popped up on a tower of flats on Printfield Walk, near where he grew up in Aberdeen. We think this is amazing👏❤️

Colder, poorer, in the pocket of dictators. That's how Reform would leave the UK.

Their MPs are happy to benefit from renewables in private, yet they want to deny the British people that right🤔

Its not taking back control, its energy surrender.

Instead of filling out this clear attempt at data collection for Labour’s own benefit, just contact your local councillors - who can actually do something about this - or report the fault directly: https://t.co/pacC3Dc15i

Don’t fall for this scam.

Really spectacular progress now taking place re. cycle infrastructure in Glasgow, after years of hard campaigning by many.

The bones of a real network are taking shape, with a whole load of journeys starting to be possible by bike. Lots to look forward to in 2025 & coming years.

[Glasgow City Council @GlasgowCC]

After consulting on our emerging City Network, we’ve proposed some additional active travel routes for the Inner North area, and a number of alternative routes for the South.

When I started talking about Oligarchy, many people didn't understand what I meant.

Well, that's changed.

When the 3 wealthiest men in America sit behind Trump at his inauguration, everyone understands that the billionaire class now controls our government.

We must fight back.

[Adam Bienkov @AdamBienkov]

Remember all the outraged coverage about a handful of climate protesters slowing ambulances a few years back?

Well it turns out that wealthy farmers doing exactly the same thing on a much bigger scale is absolutely fine

👇 Hadn't seen this before, but a great bit of data showing continued uptick in cycling within Glasgow over a decade. Counted at 35 locations around the centre on 2 days each Sept.

From ~5,000 🚲 per day in 2009 to ~14,000 in 2021.

Tracking with growth in safer cycling routes.

Transport Scotland budget is £3.7 billion pounds. Active travel spend is less than 3% of this.
