We're some of the many people in the UK mis-sold the UK Govt backed Green Deal, leaving all of us in debt and many with nothing. But we're fighting back now!

our Cllr @CllrGrahamC and former MP @AnneMcLaughlin and we met up with our local MP @PaulJSweeney who gave us a guided tour. We even met @MhairiBlack & practiced celebrating if we win this fight. It was great to see opposing politicians coming together to support this campaign.

Thread. #HELMS So two of our team (Ange and Shirley) travelled to London to give evidence to MPs at the House of Commons. The support from everyone was incredible. @Ivan_McKee paid for us to go, the @APPGonGreenDeal MPs could not have been more interested, we spent the day with -

We're so proud of our neighbour & co campaigner 86yr old Mary Hunter & you'll see why when you watch @bbctimeline tonight (THURS) 7.30pm BBC2 Scotland. She's had her peace of mind ruined but she's 1 of our core team & overcame her nerves 2 tell our story on TV! #greendeal #HELMS

[Green Deal Action Group Glasgow North East @GreenDealAction]

The core team of the action group (pictured) continues to meet regularly and we're hoping to have a series of public meetings shortly where you can get practical help with your particular circumstances. We'll also be giving evidence to @APPGonGreenDeal

Christine and Kevin are part of the core team of this group. What happened to them is not right especially when the man behind it is off golfing in Dubai!

[Anne McLaughlin NP @AnneMcLaughlin]

I have been working with a couple this happened to. Christine and Kevin in #Barmulloch were going to save for years to take their wee boy to Disneyworld but instead that money is going on the extra bills and his dreams have been shattered. Makes me so angry. #HELMS #greendeal

[Green Deal Action Group Glasgow North East @GreenDealAction]

We know that there are many more of our neighbours who still don't realise what's happened and we will be holding many more public meetings to make sure they do.

[Anne McLaughlin NP @AnneMcLaughlin]

Whenever we held public meeting in #Balornock or #Barmulloch on the issue of #HELMS or #greendeal people would come out of curiosity and leave stunned, previously unaware of what had happened to them. It was not their fault, they bought into something plastered in UK govt logos.

Article in The Herald today by our MP @PaulJSweeney https://t.co/CujC75smjh

[Green Deal Action Group Glasgow North East @GreenDealAction]

Our MP @PaulJSweeney talking about what happened to two of us - 86 year old Mary and Christine from Balornock. Says Mary should be able to enjoy her retirement, not have sleepless nights after losing her life savings. #HELMS #greendeal

[Green Deal Action Group Glasgow North East @GreenDealAction]

We struggle to sleep at night because of this.

[APPG on Green Deal Mis-selling @APPGonGreenDeal]

Our Chairperson @AngelaCrawley30 - APPG inundated with people contacting us. Building warrants not applied for prior to building work, householders told not needed & can't be applied for retrospectively leaving householders with homes they can neither insure nor sell! #GreenDeal

[Green Deal Action Group Glasgow North East @GreenDealAction]

This is the issue that's affected so many of us in #Balornock and #Barmulloch now being debated in Westminster.

[APPG on Green Deal Mis-selling @APPGonGreenDeal]

Watch the debate lead by our APPG member @GavNewlandsSNP now, 9.30am to 11am here & pls RT on this important issue. https://t.co/p570fDmo75

Good to be able to report back last night to our neighbours and friends in #Balornock and #Barmulloch on the plans we've made for campaigning for those of us mis-sold #GreenDeal products like cladding & solar panels. You can see the worry on people's faces and no wonder!

[Green Deal Action Group Glasgow North East @GreenDealAction]

Christine & Kevin of #Barmulloch planned to take their wee boy to Disneyland to celebrate some big family birthdays. They can't now because they were mis-sold solar panels under the #GreenDeal RT if U think the Westminster Government should compensate them. @APPGonGreenDeal
