Yesterday at #FMQs I asked the First Minister what his government were doing to engage with frontline workers and their trade unions as they push through sweeping public service reform.
I am sorry to say that trade unions at Glasgow Caledonian University have discovered that our employer has engaged a Kent based employment agency to source academic staff to break current strikes. Utterly shameful. We still stand firm. SAVE THE 100!

The humanitarian situation in Gaza is getting worse. Heavy rain. Flooded tents. The reality on the ground is heartbreaking.
The UK government will not stand by. We will not rest until we bring an end to the intolerable suffering.

Heavy rain has flooded tens of thousands of tents housing displaced Palestinians across Gaza.
It was a sleepless night for many, as the rain washed away makeshift shelters and soaked blankets and mattresses.
More than a year after the ceasefire began in Gaza, little has changed for its more than 2,000,000 residents – most of whom now live in tent camps.
For last 24 hours I’ve seen footage of horrific scenes from Gaza, just absolute human misery. Yet..it’s not there on any news outlet’s home pages, not discussed on our witless political shows. We’re just going to ignore it? Is that the plan?
On my birthday I remember, as I always do, Senator Gordon Wilson and his wife Joan. Their daughter Marie lost her life the day I turned 10 and the words of a man with every reason to hate but instead choose to love remain with me forever.
This Remembrance Sunday, we honour all those who have served our country and kept us safe, and all those who have made heroic sacrifices in the pursuit of peace.
We will remember them.
Developers of a hyperscale AI data centre near Glasgow have admitted it will fully rely on the National Grid despite previously claiming the facility would be powered by renewable energy
