While we might disagree on independence, we can all agree that Scotland is a nation, and its people have the right to decide their future. That is the simple principle I'm asking all MSPs in the Scottish Parliament to vote for today.

Exactly Allan - the problem they think homelessness is the solution. I have personally gone through this process, so I understand it far better than they do. They seem to assume they’re in a position to educate me, when in reality, they would do well to educate themselves first.

Patronising from an MP who incidentally has got this wrong. @Bell45 has asked the home office to pause asylum seekers being sent to home office accommodation in Glasgow. A failed uk immigration system that forces people into homelessness is the key issue here. 1/4

I think this is some of the best looking urban infill I've seen in a very long time

100 correct - The Home Office should ensure that responsibility for refugee dispersal is shared fairly among local authorities rather than the burden falling disproportionately on Glasgow 👏

Delighted to welcome Irish President Catherine Connolly to Glasgow today. Discussions focused on Glasgow's Irish diaspora, tackling violence against women & girls, & strengthening ties between our nations. A highlight was meeting pupils taking part in an anti-racism discussion.

I like the cut of his jib.

I don't normally comment on ppl personally and I respect that views are genuinely held even where I may strongly disagree - but what Ricky is saying here is what I think Glasgow cllrs generally feel about Kerr's shift to Reform & why we are so disappointed in him.
