Entering what feels like day 1,000,000 battling @GlasgowCC for personal info and breached FOI. I doubt I will ever trust public office after this whole saga is complete. The school appeal process in my experience so far lacks transparency. Wish me luck for Monday #glasgow @theSNP

[Sharon Mackin @sh4zza85]

@PaulJSweeney @GlasgowCC @AnasSarwar Thank you. It’s somewhat reassuring that you are treated with same ignorance as us mere mortals. I am not holding my breath but am already planning my next steps for post appeal. Thanks again

[Sharon Mackin @sh4zza85]

Struggling to get info from @GlasgowCC needed for school appeal next week. FOI and SARs have been breached and am unable to talk to anyone in leadership about it. Call handlers have been as helpful as they can. Can any of my list MSPs help? @PaulJSweeney @AnasSarwar

[Sharon Mackin @sh4zza85]

@PaulJSweeney @GlasgowCC @AnasSarwar @PaulJSweeney sorry to come back to you but did you receive my email. I only have tomorrow now to get this info. Have emailed several leaders and submitted a formal complaint but not able to speak to anyone in leadership about it

[Sharon Mackin @sh4zza85]

@C_Roxburgh @RK_McMahon @mansouridave @grisurgery Well done!

[Sharon Mackin @sh4zza85]

Feel like a nuisance but still no info from @GlasgowCC - 28 days now after FOI and 3 working days to the appeal it’s needed for. Have emailed director of education, chief executive and leader this afternoon in hope someone can move this forward and help us?

@LDC_tweets @kamleshkhunti @ARC_EM @uniofleicester Congratulations!

@BoyGeekDrone @HeldinEU No - do a search on social media and bet you find someone

[Sharon Mackin @sh4zza85]

@HeldinEU Variety of people. It’s a combo of nurse prescribers, pharmacy prescribers and suspect a few docs too earning on side. I don’t know who is administering but not something you should be able to get on high street. MHRA trying to crack down as not allowed to advertise meds in UK
