If Anas Sarwar cared only about serving in a UK Labour Government, why didn't he stand in the 2024 General Election when Labour were doing well & do it then? He clearly never cared about running a Scottish Government - he made skud all difference in Holyrood & treated it only as a stepping stone.

Today marks the 90th anniversary of the Spanish Civil War. A total of 549 Scots volunteered to fight in Spain. Proportionally more Scots volunteered than from any other country. We still have a lot of work to do in Scotland to tackle fascism, racism, and all forms of discrimination.

Supporting Sisters Against Cuts' protest, calling for permanent funding of womens' services, like the Murray Initiative ✊ It's a real women-led alternative to far-right exploitation of horrific sexual crimes by focusing on tackling gender-based violence & fight for services supporting survivors 💚

Another fantastic festival in Alexandra Park thanks to Platform Glasgow 💚 Thousands of folk came to enjoy the entertainment & stalls, connect & hear from local services, and organise on issues like Whitehill Pool, Alexandra Park sports hub & public toilets, & rent controls ✊

"No Scotland, No Nazis 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿" Was the rallying cry of thousands of Glaswegians who stood up against hatred on our streets, & the handful of folk who brought it ✊ Glasgow Greens are proud to stand with our fellow Glaswegians against these hatemongers 💚

Had a venture out today at last, to follow the Friends of Glasgow Royal Infirmary Glasgow Bee Trail! 🐝 It's a great activity to help explore the Glasgow Cathedral Precinct, & learn a lot about bees & the biodiversity of the area💚

Back home after the fall, thanks everyone for the well wishes! I'm going to take some time to physically recover, as ended up with a broken arm & quite a dodgy knee - my support officer Gayle Wilson will be operating my email inbox for this next week and a bit of you need any help 💚

Michelle Main was such a committed & passionate person for Sighthill & it's people. The appreciation of all she did for everyone she met was on show at her memorial service today, as folk had to stand outside the Crematorium today. She'll be sorely missed in Sighthill, & by everyone who knew her 💚

Out with Cllr Carroll & Cllr Hutchison at the Kinning Park Spogomi with #NaeTrash & Get Govan Gleaming 💚 What a great initiative, but it’s worrying how much dirt is on our streets Whoever forms the government must ensure our councils are well funded so we have a well resourced cleansing service ✊🏾
