Scotland’s cities will undergo a huge amount of change in the coming decade.
From how we get around to how we heat our homes this transformation will not be without difficulty or controversy. But Edinburgh has its eyes on the prize- we owe it to our next generation. 🌱♻️🌍

[Ian Blackford @blackfordian1]

This is astonishing. This is public information that many wish to be informed about. As a public service broadcaster the BBC have a duty to impart this information. The BBC should not be caving into the Tories.

Edinburgh’s political leaders are united in fight against coronavirus.
I’m standing together with colleagues @cllrcammyday @CllrWhyte @melaniemain & Cllr Robert Aldridge to thank people for what they’re doing now & looking ahead to better days. https://t.co/nTj9fEK1Yi

Our pals at @YescafeEdSouth have a rally on tomorrow. Why not pop along and show support.

[Paul Lawrence @sto_paul]

Huge weekend in #Edinburgh. Leith Festival, Stones, Moonwalk, Parade, loads of community festivals. Spare a thought for the hardworking @Edinburgh_CC staff working it all.

Have decided to close down this old personal Twitter account to concentrate on @lmacinnessnp. Please follow me there if you want as I will shut up here in a couple of days!

[Lesley Macinnes @lesleymacinnes]

@GaryinScotland @lmacinnessnp Powers to do this are likely to be in the next Transport Bill from Humza Yousaf at Holyrood. More details after bill is published. Currently limited in what we can do/achieve but major problem.

[Lesley Macinnes @lesleymacinnes]

@Tomcat_Rocks Thank you - very kind of you!

[Lesley Macinnes @lesleymacinnes]

Just finished interview on Call Kaye talking about very positive benefits of Edinburgh's Playing Out scheme, which is coming to committee tomorrow for approval. Great way for neighbours (of all ages!) and children to meet, talk and make friends and have some fun on their street.

[Lothian Buses @on_lothianbuses]

As @EdinburghTrams are currently unable to run in the city, tickets are valid on our services for journeys from York Pl to Murrayfield. #edintravel

And then Joseph Stiglitz mentions a project you've been working on for ages & you allow yourself to think it might just happen https://t.co/JO3RShBN7z @lofioramonti @AngelaHaggerty @libby_brooks @Garygillespie42 @CUSP_uk @KateRaworth @ProfKEPickett @fp2p @PermSecScot @Common_Weal

When I think of what my own grandfather endured escaping from Nazi-occupied Norway in 1941, almost losing his life, after which he joined the RAF alongside people from many countries, I find this comment both ill-judged and offensive, and am sure many others feel the same. https://t.co/NNYQvjMcFv

One tweet: dismisses all the countries of the Commonwealth, the Poles, the free French, USA, many Irish, the USSR, as well as partisans in many other countries.

There are Polish War Graves in Scotland. He should visit one.

Ourselves alone indeed. https://t.co/XHWvZbnMg7

[JOHN NICOLSON 🇵🇸 🇺🇦 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 @MrJohnNicolson]

I’m so proud my #TuringBill to ‘pardon’ gay men - filibustered at Westminster by a Tory minister - has been picked up by the @scotgov and #Holyrood Another example of Scotland leading the way on democracy & human rights. #LGBT @LGBTIScotland https://t.co/MXQkHmZuqR

[AMIS 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AMIScotland]

Loneliness and social isolation is an issue that affects many of our clients. Even after leaving the abusive relationship, loneliness continues for many,as the shame and stigma men experience holds them back from reconnecting with others
