Gyms closing and we’re expected to exercise outside in a country where the winter hits an average temperature of 3 degrees. Throughout Glasgow TWO gyms have had Covid cases since they opened up in August so where is the evidence to close them again?

The SNP won’t tell you what Independence really means: - Higher taxes - More debt - Cuts to public services - A hard border in Berwick - Removal of membership of the G7 & NATO - Decreased inward investment It will make Scots poorer. Fact.

In today’s full council meeting, the SNP compared us to Juntas & Putin’s Russia because we don’t support “Indy ref 2”, then labelled us murderers for supporting a nuclear deterrent; they then voted to abolish the monarchy. Scotland is in a bad way under the SNP.

The Nationalists try and proclaim that because we’re anti independence that we’re “anti-Scottish”. They are wrong it’s because we care about Scotland, we know independence would be economically reckless, separate families at the border and isolate Scotland on the world stage.

So, the SNP have announced cuts to education when a covid catch-up programme is so desperately needed. The cuts will disproportionately affect the prospects of working-class kids going onto further study. Is Nicola Sturgeon still wanting to be judged on her record on education?

Suicides have already hit a record high if the gyms close then guaranteed they numbers will double. People depend on the gym for their mental well-being even more in the winter when exercising outside isn't possible; they must stay open. GYMS ARE ESSENTIAL!
